The twenty-fifth Veterans League competition day of the Project: “Softball, quality of life” had several outstanding notes. First, the Shrimpers of the Veterans 3 team once again won the Sunday double game for the second consecutive weekend, this time, both by knock out, weaving a winning chain of 5 games in a row, which allowed them not only to ascend another "little stripe" in the standing and get closer to the leaders of the championship (now 7 games from the top), but they also managed to reach more games won than lost for the first time this season (25 - 24) with an average of over 500 (510). They also managed to surpass, for the first time, the Jagua of the Veterans 2 team, in the runs-average, now with 519 in favour and 541 against (for a difference of – 22). On the other hand, the Shrimpers' pitching performed excellently, allowing only 12 hits on the day (5 against the Jagua and 7 against the Elephants). Second, the Jagua of the veterans 2 team, lost both Sunday games for the second consecutive week, this time both by knock out, weaving a negative chain of defeats of 5 consecutive games and exhibiting a poor average of 340 as a result of only 17 games won and 33 lost. Jagua also scored only 3 runs this week end and only connected 12 sad hits. Third, all Sunday games ended with knock out scores. In addition, it is also worth noting that this weekend we had a visit as a spectator and fan, nothing more and nothing less that to the veteran Dairo Enrique Moreno Polo, Dairo Moreno´s father, our Civitas-Global-Educational-Services´ sponsor.

The highlight of this Sunday, July 14, in the Veterans League of the “Softball, quality of life” project was another double victory for the Shrimpers of the Veterans 3 team, which included a knockout to the Jagua of the Veterans 2 team. This “sweep” allowed them to discount a little stripe in its pursuit to climb to the top of the tournament, placing now themselves 8 games behind the leader, the Elephants of the team Veterans 1. On the other hand, the Jagua of the team Veterans 2 maintained its adverse streak and lost again both games, now moving away to 14.5 games from the top of standing.

In the twenty-third day of competitions of the Veterans League, of the Project: “Softball, quality of life”, the most notable note was the recovery of the offense in the three teams, in which nothing more and nothing less than the whopping 105 hits, were connected after the decline that occurred the previous week. This offensive “awakening” caused that after many previous competition Sundays, the three teams divided the results with one game won and one lost by each of the participating teams. Logically, with this division of honours, the difference in the standings was maintained.
