That turned out good as he bounced back in a striking spree blasting 31 out of 36 possible strikes for games of 269-289-269 for his 14th career 800, an 827 gem. A 10-pin refused to fall after 10 strikes in a row in his 2nd game. That 827 is his second 800 in a month as he hit (300) 846 last October 11 at Jewel City Bowl.
