Shell Oil moved two games ahead in Babe Ruth League standings by beating M. J. Grove 43 at McCurdy Field on Wednesday. Excelsior Dairy saw its playoff hopes dampened by Groves in a 98 loss, as tied games on Aug 2 and July 20 also mattered. Tonight a rainout at Frederick High School postponed Excelsior Dairy versus Kiwanis, with Shell and the Huskies slated to play Friday.
