Hope Mills gets second shot at Dunn
Skrzydlinski and Fox hit homers for Hope Mills in Sunday's game
Emory, Baggett (2 homers), and Barefoot (grand slam) for Dunn
by Tom McKinney
The Hope Mills win over West Robeson 11-0 on Monday, combined with the Kings Mountain 6-5 victory over Dunn, has set the stage for a great baseball rematch - Hope Mills versus Dunn. Sunday's game between these two talented teams was certainly one of the most thrilling games of the tournament. It also seemed like a home run derby, with Scott Skrzydlinski and Kevan Fox both drilling home runs for Hope Mills, while the Dunn baseball team's Riley Baggett hit two home runs, Ryan Barefoot hit a grand slam home run, and Taylor Emory hit the game-winning three-run homer. The much-anticipated rematch begins at 5:30 pm at Tyler Park in Dunn.
