Lots of people seem to be upset with various aspects of American life, from education and healthcare to the economy and domestic surveillance. Mostly we gripe about it and that’s it. But there’s one simple thing we can all do that will actually help (more than doing nothing) and that is to write to your congressmen about it. It may be true that no one is addressing your concerns, but you’ll have a better argument if you’ve at least told people about it. More importantly, there are starting to be problems where it’s a bit like “speak now or forever hold your peace.” Or maybe, “now or never.”
HITTERS TAKE OVER IN CRVBL WEEKEND ACTION
By Kevin McElhinney–CRVBL
Fans attending any of the past weekend’s games in the Connecticut River Valley Baseball League were treated to displays of heavy hitting, as each of the four contests featured impressive displays of offense.
On Thursday night in Dummerston, the Walpole Wild Blue thought they had their game with the Putney Fossils safely put away heading into the seventh and final inning with a 7-1 lead, but the Fossils fought back with four runs to fall short, 7-5. Walpole’s Joey Parrott got the win on the and scored two of his team’s runs, while Chris Ballou got the save, scored one run and drove in another. Center Fielder Jed St. Pierre had two hits, scored a run and stole a base. Putney Catcher Steve Stanley went two for three, scored a run and drove in a pair.
