Mifflinburg edges Selinsgrove in eighth By Brian HoltzappleFor The Daily Item Selinsgrove falls into the elimination bracket and plays Juniata County Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.
"We got down early, but we battled back," said Selinsgrove manager Chad Rapp. "I'm proud of the kids of the way we battled back, but we shot ourselves in the foot too many times. We gave too many outs away and you can't do that at this level." "Now, we'll see what we're made of," Rapp added. n Milton 12, Juniata County 4 Despite a pair of rain delays, Milton manager John Adami had a much easier time in the second game on the day. The Milton All-Stars scored all 12 of their runs in the first three innings to run away with the win. And in order to do it, however, Milton had to come back from an early three-run hole after Juniata County opened with three runs in the top of the first. "My boys, I can't say enough about their effort," Adami said. "Down 3-0 in the first inning they come back and score those runs in the bottom of the first. We really hit the ball well today." Milton got those three runs back and then some by scoring six in the bottom of the first. Starting with a lead-off walk by the manager's son, John Adami, Milton scored its first run on an error before a three-run double by Hunter Snyder helped lead to the rest. A pair of RBI doubles by Cole Wirt and Snyder keyed a three-run second inning for Milton, which got an RBI single by the younger Adami in the third. The 12-run outburst showed the manager Adami exactly what kind of team he has. "What it showed me is they battle. They were not going to give up out there," he said. "With all the hitting practice we do and all the fundamentals we stress with the kids, it showed today." Milton will meet Snyder County on Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. while Juniata County will meet Lewisburg in the late game Tuesday, scheduled for approximately 7:30.
