H Acrobles - Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 8:40-9:40 a.m.; Monday, Kings Mountain's American Legion Juniors went on a tailspin during the past week, dropping three of five games to fall from first to fourth place in the Central Division Area Four standings. Post 155 is scheduled to end first round play during the coming week, and will then advance to the Area Four playoffs where teams from all three divisions will be grouped together and paired by their records. Kings Mountain started the past week with a 5-2 record but was knocked out of first place in a 4-1 loss to Cherryville Wednesday night. Post 155 managed only five hits off Brad Long, with Doran Moore going 2-for-3 and Mike Smith, David R. Jenkins and Rick Marr adding a hit each. Marr went the distance on the mound for KM and pitched well, but Cherryville had a more bal- anced hitting attack with 11 hits. "Rick did a heck of a job," said Coach Bruce Clark. "He gave up two home runs but to make only two mistakes in a nine-inning game speaks well of him. From a hitting standpoint, we just didn't back him. Long was probably the slowest pitcher we've faced all year long and we just refused to make any adjustments at the plate." Post 155 scored two runs in the top of the 14th inning to defeat Stanley 5-3 Thursday night in Stanley. Stephen Fisher pitched 12 strong innings and Shane Webb came on in the 13th to get the win. Robert Wingo came on in the bot- tom of the 14th to retire two batters Thursday, June 25, 1992 -THE KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD-Paye “A with two men on and get a save. Caja Ormand's two-run single platcd Mike Smith and Todd Ware 10 give KM the victory. In the bot- tom of the 14th, Frank Odell led off with a double for Stanley but was gunned down by Ormand and Ware when he tried to stretch the hit into a triple. Webb then walked a batter and hit a batter before Wingo came on to record a big strikeout and groundout to end the game. "It was an exciting game," said Coach Clark. "Anytime you play that long you're glad to win. Stephen threw 12 extremely good innings. That's all he could throw for his 72-hour period and he made the best of it. "Shane Webb came in and looked good and then lost a little composure, and Robert Wingo came in and did an excellent job for a ninth grader. That was the purpose we wanted him and Kevin Melton to play legion ball...to get some quality time in pressure situa- tions. He responded well." Post 155 and Stanley played again Saturday at Lancaster Field with KM coming from behind with seven runs in the eighth inning to win 8-5. Wingo started on the mound but David R. Jenkins, David C. Jenkins Webb and Marr also saw pitching time. David C. Jenkins got the win. David R.

"That was probably the Bliss st turnaround I've seen in a long time," said Clark. "They had us down 5-1 in the eighth. It was like we turned a switch on and the guys decided it was time to play. We ended up scoring seven runs in the eighth and putting the game away."
