 GLADSTONE---The Battle of Alger County on the Little League Baseball diamond was halted by a powerful rain storm on Sunday, and the Munising Major Boys (age 11-12) got full benefit from the situation. 
Munising pitcher Skyler Anderson won.
The Escanaba-Gladstone game was postponed until Monday night. Munising scored both of its runs in the second inning. Dayne Murck singled, then Austin Killips and Mason Smith drew walks. With one out, Josh Houtari got a base hit, and the Orange and Black All-Stars had the lead.

Tri-County's only hits were by Gabe Dillow in the third inning and Blake Krouth in the fourth inning. The only other runner was a walk.
