Cards Seek To Widen A Lead Tonight
The Union Cards meet the Dittman Dodgers at 6:15 p.m. in Baytown Little League action at Jaycee Ball Park. The Cards hold a two game edge on the Earthman Tigers who are in second place, and a win would push the lead closer to clinching the title with only four playing nights left. The Tigers need a victory to stay in the race as a Cards loss would widen the gap. The schedule was moved up from Friday to avoid conflicting with the Jaycee Derby and was organized by the Baytown Junior Chamber of Commerce.
