American Legion: Medfield Falls to District 6 Leader Walpole in 7 Innings

Post 110 lost to Walpole, 13-4, Tuesday in seven innings (darkness), falling to 10-5 this season.

Not much went the way of the Medfield American Legion baseball team in a 13-4, seven-inning loss to Walpole Tuesday at Curt Schilling Field in Medfield. Medfield head coach James Lagos described Tuesday's game as "cruel" to his club as Post 110 could not catch a break against District 6 leader Walpole. “I was telling these guys earlier how baseball is such a cruel, cruel game,” Lagos said. “Our third baseman T.J. Valente hit the snot out of the ball but he hit it right at the guy every single time, great play here, great play there. Baseball is a cruel sport.” While Medfield wasn’t finding much fortune on the diamond, Walpole was benefiting from the ball rolling in its favor. Walpole’s good fortune resulted in two runs in the first inning …

American Legion: Medfield Picks Up 7-5 Victory over Norfolk Tuesday

Post 110 collects District 6 win on the road.

Medfield American Legion Post 110 needed strong pitching and defense in the bottom of the seventh Tuesday to prevent a Norfolk come back and secure a 7-5 District 6 victory. Medfield got both as closer Walker Littlebale shut the door on Norfolk thanks to two key defensive plays in the final inning. Norfolk's Alex lagos ripped a double to left field to start the inning – and the comeback bid. But Littlebale forced Norfolk's Tyler Campo to ground back to the mound and an alert Littlebale threw to third to erase the lead runner.  Norfolk's Nick Ahearn then hit another shot back to the pitcher, who turned a game-ending double play. Post 335 Coach Bill Lagos was both happy and disappointed with his team’s overall performance, which dropped …
