Print | Email  

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. -- Williamstown Police Department rallied from four runs down to force extra innings, but Pownal, Vt.'s, Carbone Honda pulled out a 9-8 win in the eighth inning on opening day of the Cal Ripken Baseball season on Saturday.
 
The day began the annual celebration of the league's opening, which included the parade down Cole Avenue and a special tribute to members of the league's 12-and-under team (many now varsity athletes at Mount Greylock) who won the state championship.
 
In Saturday's Major League Division opener, Luke Trombley got the win for Carbone, and Caleb Greene had a double and a single for the victors.
 
Jake Gitterman and Xander Axt each had a pair of doubles, and Axt had three RBIs for Williamstown Police.
 
Axt also was a hard-luck loser on the mound, striking out eight and allowing just two runs in five innings of relief work.
 
ROOKIE LEAGUE
Kayla Miller scored on a slow roller back to the mound in the bottom of the third to earn a 15-15 tie for iBerkshires.com in Saturday's season opener against The Clark.
