So, my team lost to Gary’s team, by a score of 22-1. And he spotted us with a 1-0 lead in the first inning!!!
Obviously, we didn’t have a “mercy rule”
to save us from this whipping.

July 4, 1957. A combined All-Star team from Ashland’s Babe Ruth League played at Ironton. Gary Wright asked “where were J.D. Browne and Harold Sargent when we needed them?”

Buzz Smith hit a home
run and won the game
for us. We went to the
state Babe Ruth League
tournament in Middlesboro. My room
mate was J.D. Minnehan.
