A Sad Story from the Wiffle Diamond


Carlisle, PA.... In June 2005, he stood on top of the Wiffle Ball world. An MVP who could play through injury, pitch with pinpoint accuracy and provide the occasional home run. He had the Wiffle Ball community in his very large hand.
The decline came as swiftly as his pitches.
His name? As far as anyone can remember- Bill Entwistle. What happened to the 6' 5" right-hander from the Regal View section of North Ridge?
"He got in the middle of too many fights in the bad section of the neighborhood. Oh brother- there were fights. Oh brother -tons of fights, " according to a resident who did not want to be identified. "I think it just wore him down. They took Bill out of the Regal View, but you can't take the Regal view out of Bill - or something like that."
Others believe he just started riding his bike and never came back. "He rode off into the sunset knowing he could never duplicate his efforts from 2005," stated Dave Orr of the more upscale Skyline View section of North Ridge.
Entwistle's too brief career line:
Pitching 19-9 1 shutout and a 4.23 ERA
Batting .245 7 HR and 27 RBIs
