PITCHING HIGHLIGHTS

Yet another one hitter this week. Roger Moret of the Hard Cider allowed just one hit to the Cloverleafs on May 22nd. Rick Burleson, Cloverleafs shortstop, grounded a scorcher into left field leading off the seventh inning. Neither shortstop Enzo Hernandez nor third baseman Don Money had any chance at the hard hit ball. Moret was far from sharp
as he allowed six walks and went to a full count on six others, but the Burleson single was the only safety the Cloverleafs managed this day against him.
