Merchants Downed by Red Sox in Philippi Thriller
The Grafton Merchants lost their third game of the season 13 to 3 at home to the Philippi Red Sox. Philippi surged back from an early Merchants lead, piling up runs in the third to fifth and unleashing six runs in the sixth aided by Joe Pednec’s grand slam. Merchants managed one run in the seventh and ninth as their record moved to 3-3. They next face Philippi and Scott Mine at the local athletic field in Grafton. The piece also briefly notes the Harmsworth Trophy race last held in 1933 and Turk Broda’s shutout in the 1949 playoffs.
