Not even the excitement of playing at PNC Park could evoke a win for the Avonworth baseball team when they met Our Lady Of Sacred Heart last Friday.

The Antelopes, who jumped out to an early lead, surrendered six runs in the fourth inning on their way to a 7-3 loss.

Starting pitcher Tom Turnbull seemed to have things under control, keeping OLSH off the scoreboard for the first three innings.

What?

It’s hard to tell who was more surprised by the umpire’s call when Avonworth’s Nick Hobbs was ruled out at home plate during the bottom of the sixth inning as the ‘Lopes played OLSH at PNC Park last Friday. The Antelopes unfortunately emulated the success of the Pittsburgh Pirates who regularly play at the stadium, and lost 7-3.

Youth wins at PNC Park

An area youth recently placed first in the 7-8 year-old category in the pitch, hit and run competition at PNC Park.

To qualify for the championship, Turner Grau had to win at the local level preliminaries at Pine-Richland, and at sectionals at Springdale. In the finals at PNC, he went up against three other sectional winners from Western Pennsylvania. Athletes compiled points in each of the three categories to determine the winner.
