Win Goes to Melodeons in Tight Contest
The Bennington Melodeons knocked off the Barre Headstones, 5-3, in Northern New England Association action at Melodeon Grounds. Bennington pitcher and San Juan, Puerto Rico, native Ofelio Cortez had an outstanding performance. In 9 innings, Cortez surrendered 12 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 2. He allowed 3 runs. Bennington has now won 3 in a row.

The game was at a stalemate until shortstop Howard Neville came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Barre pitcher Calvino Garza, he hit a first pitch sinker for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Bennington on top, 5-3.

"Ah, the sweet taste of victory," Neville crowed after the game.
