Barefoot League Postpones Pecos Softball Game Monday
The Barefoot League postpones its Pecos softball opener between the North side led by Marion Cook and the South side led by Leroy Wadley to Monday June 19. Cecil Lee says the postponement shifts the off game to that date due to a prior rainout between Barstow and the Christians. Kenneth Slack returns from UT Austin for summer. Plowboys expect two strong fullbacks next season and a busy week unfolds with daily games through Friday. Joe Bob Kelton shifts teams as Christians vs Oilers dispute ends with Kelton joining the Christians. Snakey shines with a first at bat two-bagger down the third-base line.
