Barbaric Yawps Sounded Over Roofs as Writers Win

"As constant readers know, the annual agons of 2009 and 2010 lived up to the name — the Artists hanging a 15-14 loss on the Writers in 10 innings last year, and the Scriveners writing finis to the Paletteers’ dreams by a score of 12-11 in 10 frames two years ago.

This time, although the Writers jumped on the Artists early, taking an 8-0 lead before Hope’s charges began to come back in the top of the third, it was anyone’s ballgame going down the stretch after Eddie McCarthy in the top of the eighth authored a three-run shot (his second home run and fifth run batted in of the afternoon) that brought the Artists to within 11-10."
