This morning's game was truly a "Duel in the Sun" with the Rockies Chris Dedrick battling the Pirates' Joe Burns at Bethlehem. Both pitchers had great stuff and the game remained 0-0 through 4 1/2 when the Pirates scored 1 to take the lead in the bottom of the 5th. Burns held the Rockies scoreless in the 6th and the Pirates added 2 on a couple of miscues by the Rockies. (Limited details since I don't have the book in my possession). In the top of the 7th the Rockies 1st batter singled and the next hitter lined a rocket just above Joe Burns' head which he snagged and doubled the runner up at first. The final batter popped to 2nd to end the game. Again it was an incredible battle by 2 of the best pitchers in the league. The Pirates will have their hands full in the next round taking on the regular season 35 league first place finisher, Outlaws.
