Nelsons Fall to Grand Forks in Muddy Diamond Game
The weather clerk halted operations briefly yesterday for a Nelson versus Grand Forks baseball game. Despite a rain damaged field, Grand Forks won seven to three, the first Nelson home loss this season. The game remained tied at three until a late Grand Forks error and homer swung the outcome. Nelson had not played since Dominion Day, yet delivered a solid, mostly errorless effort before a large, lively crowd. See Martin O'Reilly & Co. for table linen supplies.
