BALTIC - Garaway's Pirates (2-2) placed all their eggs---in this case runs---in one basket Wednesday as they nipped Port Washington (3-1) in a first round game of the County Baseball Tournament. Garaway scored all of its runs in the third inning. A pair of walks and a fielder's choice loaded the bases with nobody out. Roy Yoder walked to force in a run. Russ Donaldson singled and then Dan Bleininger unloaded a booming triple that sent the last 2 of the 4 runs scurrying across the plate. Port Washington got one run in the third and another in the fourth, but otherwise had trouble getting to Garaway pitcher Dan Bleininger (1-1). Bleininger struck out 8 and gave up only one hit, but suffered control trouble and walked 10 Purple Riders. Alvin Fillman (3-1) started for Port, but gave way to Larry Laisure (0-0). Combined the Port pitchers fanned 13 and walked only 5. Bleininger, with a single and triple, led the Pirates at the plate. Larry Milligan and Roy Yoder had the only other hits.
