Dale Ramsey scores

 

 

Dale Ramsey of the Auroras scores on a wild pitch as teammate Paul Watson and Piccinis pitcher Larry Mann look on during the second inning of the Pacific Metro League action at Queen's Park. Umpire Bob Henning has his eye on the ball, which is being pursued by catcher John Haar. But, Haar's hitting sparked a four-run fourth inning rally to give Puccinis a 6-4 victory.
