Palmer homers at Udall


Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)

60-and-over baseball



Reed Palmer, 60, singled, hit a solo home run over the centerfield fence, and drove in two runs as Team Blue played to a 2-2 tie with Team White at Udall Park this morning.

It was a pitching duel all the way as Doc Thompson went the distance for Team Blue and Lloyd Barzell hurled all seven innings for Team White. Team Blue had a chance to break it open in the top of the seventh. With two outs and two runners on base, Barzell walked the power-hitting Palmer to load the bases. The strategy worked as  the next batter, Pigpen Price, hit a shot back to the mound into the glove of Barzell for the final out.

The TOTS will close out the week with a game on Friday. Start time is 9 a.m.
