May 29, 1979 — George Smith and Mike Jones combine to pitch a two-hitter as Slatington earns a 5-1 Centennial League victory over visiting Stroudsburg. Smith allows the one run and is relieved by Jones in the fifth. The Bulldogs, coached by Frank Carazo, tie the game on an error in the fourth inning and take the lead for good in the fifth on singles by Gary Blose and Dave Zellner, and Curt Bauer’s triple. The winners add two insurance runs in the sixth thanks to singles by Jones and Blose, and a double by Zellner.
