Silver Valley Tumbles, 4-1
Tyler Hall scattered three hits and picked up a complete-game win Friday night as Strike Zone tripped host Silver Valley 4-1 in the Silver Valley Invitational American Legion baseball tournament being played in Osburn.
Hall’s splendid performance, which included five strikeouts, was backed by the hot bat of Jason Philipe, who banged out three hits and drove in two runs for the winners.
Silver Valley scored in the third inning when Kevin Lee scored on a throwing error.
