Rain Delays Darting Start for City Slow Pitch Leagues
The City Slo-Pitch League opened May 13 with 58 scheduled games and 36 played as rain empties fields at McGuan Park. Rainouts push makeup games to weekends, threaten Norwalk Invitational and Huron County Tournaments, and leave Austin Shadle unable to set schedules for youth leagues. The Lefty Grove and VFW Teener leagues lag behind due to repeated washouts, with diamonds used across McGuan Park and VFW facilities.
