The League’s main field gets a significant improvement, as the outfield wall is raised from four to seven feet. John Marsh of Justin becomes the first player to clear the fence, tying the score against Rotary 30-Apr with a two-run clout to left-center. Justin goes on to win, 5-3.
Tommy Prince is the winning pitcher in Game 2 of the Town Series, which Gilio Music wins against Lions. Prince goes on to manage a team from 1983-87, to serve as league president in 1989 and 1990, and to take over as District 5 Administrator in 1993.
