July 23, 1997 — Alex Kramer delivers a three-run double in the fourth inning to help propel Tamaqua to a 7-6 victory over Stroudsburg and stay alive in the Section 4 9-10 year-old Little League tournament. A miscue and infield singles by Aaron Smith and Eric Valentine loads the bases for Kramer, who rips one into the left field gap. A throwing error on the play allows Kramer to score, turning a 4-3 deficit into a 7-4 advantage. Smith tosses two scoreless innings to preserve the victory, fanning the final two batters. The winners also receive a pair of hits from Joey Vidzicki.
