Rain tops Muscatine Sox as early season struggles persist
Rain dominates Muscatine's Red Sox schedule with four postponements in four Sundays. After a dual with Batavia and Galesburg was rained out, the team hopes to play Belford tonight. Batting averages dip while pitching remains tough, led by Fred Stephens and Jerry Hart at 7 for 10. Southeast Iowa coaches leave for California. Burlington’s Weiny resigns to coach in California as Weiny joins Pacific High. Local coaching moves continue as Knots signs with New London and others shift roles.
