Bernews, Thank you for the excellent coverage of Cup Match. Unfortunately I couldn’t be in BDA this year. I really miss it, but appreciate your news of the day’s events. Coco Thompson, Bayside, NY
The game was nail biting. Tomorrow should bring a victor, S C C hopefully. St.George can keep making rash shots, We need not follow their batting example tomorrow .
Like so other situations in life its not over until its over. This start for St. Georges only means. Harder work in the second innings, need to keep Somersets runs down and get it over quickly, first chance is shot, all that can be done is a strong finish. I would like to mention I see Jason Anderson (different Anderson) in the line up,, appreciate that man’s abilities, pull it together blue and blue!
Better on Bernews than the confusion you have to wade through elsewhere
Thank you Bernews Watched the game on my cell phone here in Ohio.
So exciting to experience it so far away. Miss being home for this
great celebration of our Emancipation/Somer’s Day/Cup Match.
