Game Summary
Fort LeBoeuf is on a roll and making a case for the playoffs. The Bisons beat Warren last week, who might already be in the playoffs, and upset first-place Corry 9-8 in eight innings. LeBoeuf was down 8-3 heading to the bottom of the eighth inning before a furious comeback by the Bisons capped by a three-run double by Garrett Sargent. Sargent finished with three doubles and four RBIs, including an RBI double in the bottom of the seventh inning to tie the game. LeBoeuf moved ahead of Warren, who lost to Harbor Creek on Monday, in the Region 6 standings. The Bisons seem almost like a lock at this point to sneak into the playoffs.
