Sasshole Sports Empire versus Smelt It, Dealt It

In week 3, the Sassholes met the team that handed them their only two losses of the previous season, Smelt It Dealt It. In a defensive struggle, tied at 1 in the bottom of the 7th, Leraw blew the doors off the Sniffers lock down defense by crushing a 3 run home run into left field scoring 656 and Sunkist. Just to make it interesting, the Sassholes allowed another 2 runs in the top of the 8th to make it look close.
The Sassholes are now riding high into the bye week by finally getting a 'W' against a rival in the making Smelt It Dealt It team.
