Zone 1 Will Send Brewer & Bangor To States
The Bangor Comrades won the American Legion baseball play-in game Saturday, beating Gorham 10-0. That means both Bangor and Zone 1 champ Brewer will play in next week's state tournament in Augusta.
Curtis Worcester pitched the complete game win - it ended after eight innings because of the ten-run rule. Bangor will take a 23-3 record in the state event.
The Brewer Falcons earned the zone championship and the automatic bid to the states after beating Bangor in the zone title game.
