61 - Gnaden Tops Stone Creek 20-1 (9-13-60)


STONE CREEK - Pounding the ball with authority, Gnadenhutten's latest baseball edition (1-0) opened its new season on a victorious note yesterday belting Stone Creek (0-1) in its first county league Fall encounter.  The win also marked the debut of Gnaden's new coach Ted Martin who returned to his alma mater from Newcomerstown.  Dave Struchen (1-0) was the winning pitcher, allowing only one hit over the first 6 innings before being relieved by John Rauzi (0-0) in the last frame.  The pair fanned 12.  Wallace (0-1) and Sauser (0-0) were on the losing mound.  Carl Dichler had a perfect day for Gnaden, slashing 4 hits in as many trips, including a double.  John Rauzi and Gary Conway each collected bases-loaded triples and Larry Rentsch had a double, while Jim McCreary had 3 for 5.  The Indians collected 16 hits all told in registering the win.  Gnaden will be playing all games on the road this season.
