Alec Murphy helped his squad with a
home run as Mount Pulaski came back to tie the game 9-9 in the
bottom of the third.
After that it was all defense, with
Graue's ace, Dillon Leslie, pitching well and Mount Pulaski's Cole
Awe matching his counterpart.
Time
limitations could have ended this matchup, but both teams agreed to
continue play. In the extra inning Graue had the go-ahead run thrown
out at the plate, with Jonathan Oberreiter applying the tag. Once
again, Graue's Dillon Leslie shut down Mount Pulaski's bid to win
the game.

Note: Amidon mentioned how good
Mount Pulaski's officiating has been this season.
"I have had
many parents say how professional this group of young men look and
perform," he added. "Thanks, guys." |
