Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)
60-and-over baseball
Pigpen Price, 70, allowed four hits, struck out one and walked four en route to a 3-1 win at Udall Park today in a 60-and-over Tucson Old Timers baseball game.
Price, pitching for Team White, was helped out offensively by a 340-ft, solo home run in the fourth inning by hard-hitting 62-year-old lefty Tim Tolson. Price carried a 3-0 shutout into the final inning, but Bob Daliege, 67, singled up the middle and scored later in the inning on a ground out to third by Doc Thompson.
Billy Heiny, 85, pitched a complete game for Team Blue and was saddled with the loss. Heiny gave up just two runs in the bottom of the first inning and the solo shot to Tolson in the fourth. "I pitched well today, but Pigpen got the job done," said Heiny, following the game.
The defensive play of the game occurred in the third inning by Daliege, who made a shoestring catch in center field to snuff out a threat by Team White.

Good job by both pitchers today and very good defense by both teams! There were double plays by both teams I believe.
