Talking mercy in Middletown

No one in the press box wanted to say, but everybody is thinking it.
Waterford has the potential to end its game with Berlin early.
The Zone VI champs own an 8-0 lead in the fifth inning and need just two more runs to invoke the seven inning, 10 -run mercy rule.
The latest Waterford tally came in the bottom of the fifth when Jake Simon reached on an error, stole second, advanced to third on a base hit by Matt Tuneski. Kyle Turnier brought home Simon with a single.
The Legion tournament schedule has also changed due to rain in Torrington today. Windsor Locks and Shelton have to complete a suspended game with Windsor Locks leading, 9-4, through seven. That game has been moved from Torrington to Middletown on Wednesday.
That completion will take place at 11:30 a.m. with the winner playing Simsbury at 1 p.m. Norwalk and Oakville will play at 4:30 p.m.and the winner of that game will play the 1 p.m. game winner.
The only problem, rain is in the forecast for Wednesday.
At least, there are no games in Torrington.
