PUNXSUTAWNEY, PA
The John J. Fisher Post 62 Punxsutawney Senior Legion team, which also includes players from Brookville this year, had a stellar showing in its home-opening double header Tuesday night, picking up a pair of mercy-rule shutout victories over Curwensville. (Left photo) Joey DiPietro’s pitching played a large role in the first win, as he hurled a two-hit shutout to earn the win. (Right photo) Some crafty base running also paid off for Punxsy, such as this play, where Tyler Park avoided being tagged in a rundown to reach third safely.
