Frederick Rollers Defeat EFAC In Junior Softball Clash
The last place Frederick Rollers came from behind with a five run surge in the top of the seventh to upset EFAC 7-6 in a tense junior softball league game at East Frederick Wednesday. Del Baker homered earlier and singled, Bill Grimes started the uprising, Kenny May drove in runs with a two-bagger, and May later scored the winning run on a throw home. Darkness halted Walkersville vs Ballenger with a 6-6 tie, and Mountain Dale could not field enough players, forfeiting the replay. Final line: Rollers 7, EFAC 6. Baker and Titlow for Rollers. White, Showe, Smith for EFAC.
