Western Wakefield Tops Hurley 5 2 to Lead U P Baseball Standings

Wakefield Cardinals moved into sole first in the Western U P Baseball League by defeating Hurley Midgets 5 2. Bob Smith dominated on the mound with 12 strikeouts, while Dick Valesano and Bob Koski keyed the offense with multi hit nights including two hits apiece. Wakefield improved to 3 0 as Koski and Valesano led a third inning burst that put the game away, with Salmi and Koski contributing home runs and solid defense backing Smith. The win sets up an upcoming matchup at Ontonagon as Wakefield seeks another league win.
