With  the fans all dressed in "Red Out" chanting from the packed bleachers .Albert Sitt leads the inning with a walk with the 11th man in the stands chanting and cheering . After a force out , Michael Ancona hits a base hit to put runners at 1st and 2nd with one out . Up steps to the plate David "DC" Cohen . With Ikie "Baby Meat" on deck , Isaac Dweck had to make sure to go after D.C. cohen . D.C.ropes a line drive that gets through the Flatbush outfield. Ancona motoring around third base like a gazelle and slides home to give the Hillel Heat the 2-1 victory.
