With Late Score, Cyclones Beat Missions
The Mt. Vernon Cyclones did just enough to secure a victory over the Montgomery Missions, 3-2, in 10 innings at Mt. Vernon Grounds. Nobody did more than pitcher Russ Burleson. Mt. Vernon, at 50-43, occupies third place in the Sub League 2 East Division.

Up to bat in the bottom of the tenth, 21-year old left fielder Dan Reese had a chance to be the hero. Montgomery pitcher Javier Perez wanted to foil that plan. But with one out, Reese drew a walk, driving in 1 run. The Cyclones had themselves a thrilling win.

"It was bedlam at the end," Reese said.
