New Castle Falls Short In Homestand Opener To McKeesport
New Castle lost the first game of the series to McKeesport 3 to 2 at Cascade grounds. An eighth inning rally tied the score before McKeesport pulled ahead in the ninth as Dalrymple and Miller drove runs and Weber’s defense kept New Castle from a shutout. Dewar's late hit and Hagen’s baserunning provided late life, but the Tubers held on for the win.
