PORT WASHINGTON - Midvale (1-1) wrapped up twin victories yesterday.  In the initial encounter with Port Washington (2-2) Neal Beans (1-0) outlasted Jim Bender (1-1) in 8 innings.  The Blue Devils scored their winning run as Walt Weaver walked in the top of the 8th, stole second, went to third on a passed ball and scored on a perfect bunt by Warren Leggett.  Port collected 7 hits off Beans and loaded the bases twice.  Bender permitted only 2 hits.
