Garaway's Pirates downed Strasburg 4-3, Midvale topped Baltic 12-8 and Gnadenhutten blasted Port Washington 27-1 in county games yesterday. The Pirates scored their initial marker in the first frame and had single runs in the 5th, 8th and 7th, while Strasburg tallied two in the 2nd and one in the 5th. Going the distance for Garaway was Charley Stingel. He permitted six hits, fanned 12 and issued six walks. The Tigers' Don Warnes was touched for five hits, whiffed eight and walked five. Leading the winners' attack was Gordon Gerber, who stole home in the sixth inning to tie the score and in the seventh hit a bases-loaded single with one out to give the Pirates the victory. Stingel also tripled. Bob Haswell blasted a homer for Strasburg, while Bob Kaltenbaugh tripled in the second, driving in a run.*
With the Midvale-Baltic game tied at 3-3 after the 3rd, the blue Devils moved ahead 4-3, but the Eagles rallied for a 7-4 margin before starter Bill Housel of Midvale was relieved by Dave Belknap. The Blue Devils then touched Bob Lautensleger of Baltic for three runs in their half of the 5th and got four more in the 6th and one in the 7th. Lonnie Fulp and Belknap led Midvale with three hits apiece, while Ron Huprich and Kandell paced Baltic with the same number. Belknap received credit for the win.
