Brush Makers Defeat Elks in Tight American League Tilt
Ox Fibre edged the Elks 7 to 2 at Baker Park to close the regular schedule tied for first place. A four-run third inning and aggressive base running sparked the win as Oxco capitalized with runs when runners were in scoring position. Pitchers Carder and Rinehart faced key moments, while Stauffer and Grove anchored defense. Postgame, a donkey-baseball exhibition sponsored by the Walkersville Volunteer Fire Company drew crowds and funds for the firefighters athletic fund.
