Delco League adds color with Frieze and Nasko lineups
Pool hustler style meets baseball as Fred Frieze carries his own bat for Delco League games while Steve Nasko builds a powerful Sinclair lineup featuring Maher Vain Blackiston and Millichap. Millichap shines at third and short, coaching at times, with Nasko praising his former teen star energy. Alesi quit to help Lloyd AC after leading Eddystone to five straight shuffleboard titles, then joined Vets rivals. Praternal Order of Eagles win finals despite Alesi staying with a teammate for praise. Timmy Murtaugh signs with Sunoco and Sun Oil Little League earns praise for quick, well-ordered games. Leo Sullivan shifts to Fizzana Bros, boosting their defense as Media adds Malseec to tackle shortstop gaps.
