Franklin County starting pitcher Bernard Selmon suffered the loss, pitching an 1 1/3 before being helped off the field, after being hit by a line drive to the chest in the second inning.

Dusty Brock, the Summit All-Stars starting catcher, delivered a towering three-run homer over the right field fence to give Summit a commanding 6-0 lead.
