THE Department of Community and Cultural Affairs I and the Department of Labor disposed of their semis rivals in the 2006 Inter-gov’t Softball Leagues to set up their title series in the men’s division of the annual tournament.
DCCA 1, which took the pennant, remained undefeated entering the best-of-three championship series, after slipping past No Zone, 19-12, last Wednesday at the Miguel “Tan Ge’ Basa Pangelinan Ballfield.
It was another team-effort win for DCCA, which drew solid games from Julian and Tony Camacho, Mel Sakisasat and Joey Dela Cruz.
Sakisat went 4-for-5 with four runs, one double, one triple and one RBI. Dela Cruz was also 4-for-5 and scored three runs, two doubles and three RBIs.

Mario Sablan, Benjie Tagabuel and James Fleming combined for five runs.
Labor grabbed the second finals berth after downing the Ports Police, 13-10.
Howard Sablan and Tim Wesley were the top performers in Labor’s win as they both went 3-for-4 on the field.
Sablan and Wesley also scored two runs apiece.
Chris Alepuyo only went 1-for-3 with no runs, but he had three RBIs, while Mike Sablan went one-of-three with one run and two RBIs.
