Junior Twilight League opens with two fast games
The second half of the Junior Twilight baseball league opened with two snappy games. In the first, the Elks edged past 40-8 with R Hatfield scoring after an error and Foresma driving in the decisive run in the fifth. The Scots Rites led the second game 13 0 in the second inning, White delivering two base hits and Pugh of Holcom driving in the lone run for his team. Umpires were scarce, Lou Harshfield officiating, and several newcomers showed promise as both squads played fast despite a heavy field.

Understanding baserunner overruns first base and return rule
The baserunner who overruns first base may return to first base in fair or foul territory without liability to be put out if he makes no attempt to go to second. If he attempts to advance to second before returning, he forfeits the exemption and must be called out if touched by the ball. The common belief that he must turn to his right is incorrect. the return path is dictated by whether he attempts to go to second.
