Waterford has had some scares

Waterford is well ahead of Berlin in the American Legion state championship game, 6-0, at Palmer Field in Middletown after seven innings.
They have had a couple of close calls, however, most of them remedied by pitcher Pat Quinn.
The soon-to-be freshman at the University of Maine saw Berlin load the bases against him in the second inning. Quinn got out of the jam with a nicely executed pickoff at second base in conjunction with shortstop Mickey Amanti.
Quinn got out of a fourth inning first and second pickle with a called third strike and did the same in the fifth inning, only this time with a swinging third strike.
Since then, Quinn has retired the last six batters in a row, has allowed just four hits and has struck out nine.
