Muscatine Muskie hopes dashed by Bettendorf loss
Bettendorf toppled Muscatine 9 6 as the Bulldogs erupted for nine runs in the first four innings and Muscatine could muster only four hits. Denny Kurriger and Rick Buster fueled the Muscatine scoring with a fourth inning rally, but Bettendorf's early lead proved insurmountable. Muscatine JV triumphed 3 2 in their game, with Mike Cook and Mike Varney handling pitching duties.
