Champs Lose Last 10 Barons In Rain Delayed Doubleheader
In a rain soaked Tuesday, the Barons defeated the Champs 6 to 2 as Russell Ford faced heavy criticism and Chapmeinfeld missteps. A second game halted in the second inning after a cobbled rain delay. Bill Smith was knocked unconscious by a Coca Cola bottle during the melee and later revived. The Barons opened scoring in the second inning and added runs through the fifth and sixth, while the Champs managed two runs in the sixth. A remarkable second inning double play by the Champs capped off by an infield rush marked the day’s notable play before the rain forced the suspension.
