HARLEM WINS 6-4, STAYS ALIVE

HARLEM - Harlem rallied with a four-run inning and Bucky Walters overcame early trouble as Harlem defeated Muskegon, 6-4, in Game 4, to avoid a sweep.
Muskegon jumped out early with three runs in the opening two frames as they took a 3-1 lead. Muskegon starter Sid Hudson was yanked in the third when he got into trouble, giving way to Ray Starr. Starr got rocked in the fourth, surrendering all four runs, and giving the Knights a 5-3 lead.
The Knights held on for the 6-4 win, and stay alive in the World Series. Taffy Wright had four hits for the Dawgs, along with 3 RBI.
