Patriot Star John Hart Fails In Extra Inning Bracket Clash

Mt Anthony Union loses to Brattleboro 4 3 in eight innings after a dominant performance by Patriots pitcher John Hart. A two out walk balk error, plus a costly misplay in the Brattleboro seventh helps spark the rally with Kerry Miner delivering key hits including a misplayed fly in the sixth and a hanging curve that produced the winning run for Brattleboro in the eighth. Willie Blanchard scores on Miners hit as Brattleboro takes the game in extra innings.
