May 1, 1984 — Dave Brown’s RBI hit in the fifth inning breaks a tie score and helps Jim Thorpe gain an 8-4 Schuylkill League victory over Mahanoy Area. The Olympians extend their lead in the sixth by plating three more runs. Jim Miller cracks a bases-loaded double to account for all three runs. Scott Kmetz earns the mound win by tossing all seven innings. After a rough third frame in which he allows four runs, he shuts down the Bears over the final four innings. Kmetz gives up five hits and strikes out 10. The winners also receive a two-run single from Scott Miller.
