Pierogis Top Ft. Polk South, 2-1
The Squirrel Hill Pierogis trumped the Ft. Polk South Thunder Hawks, 2-1, at Field of the Rawhides. Squirrel Hill shortstop John Bly was terrific. He went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs. The win belongs to Cristo Bermúdez in relief. His record improves to 3-3. Héctor García took the loss for Ft. Polk South. The slumping Thunder Hawks have lost 7 straight.

The game was at a stalemate until pinch hitter Bob Johnson came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Ft. Polk South pitcher Sergio Rocha, he hit a 2-0 sinker for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Squirrel Hill on top, 2-1.

"In baseball, you have your ups and downs," said Ft. Polk South manager Mike Evans. "You just try to stay level-headed the whole time."
