Pitchers Battle Ends In 2 All T o Against Port Hope

In a Lakeshore Intermediate Baseball League postponement at Orono, Port Hope Haggis Bowlers and Orono Orphans battled to a 2 2 stalemate as darkness halted play in the ninth inning. Crono’s Keith West and Bob Conlon of Port Hope locked down the mound with six and 14 strikeouts respectively, while West surrendered 10 hits and Conlon issued five walks. West led with two triples and an accompanying single, while Conlon contributed a string of hits and defensive miscues by both sides. Port Hope and Orono each pushed across a run in the third, with Orono taking the lead on a Beaton single after Beaton’s triple, and Port Hope tying it on Conlon’s run-scoring effort. The game ended with Port Hope batting in the top of the ninth due to darkness.
