Oswego Brews Split Weekend Thriller With Hannibal
Billy Drumm steals home with two out in the fifth to spark Oswego Genesee Brews to a 4 3 win over Hannibal Merchants and salvage a weekend split in New York State League play at Fort Ontario. Hannibal errors cost Dunsmore a key second inning rally as Cavellier’s three pickoffs and Dawson’s glove work highlighted a tense game. Oswego’s McCrobie earned the win, while Dunsmore took the loss. Oswego sit mid table as Fulton East Syracuse lead with Central Square and Minoa close behind.
