Acton Drops Opener in Tri-County Frat League at Guelph
Acton traveled to Guelph for the Tri-County League opener and fell 14 to 23 to Royal City in a high‑scoring ten inning affair. The Acton Tanners led early with strong hitting by Waterhouse and Anderson and a big seventh inning, but costly errors and a late spurt allowed Guelph’s Peacocks to rally. Norm Morton struggled in the tenth as Acton’s comeback bid unraveled and Kaine forced in the tying and winning runs with a bases‑loaded walk and hit by pitch.
