No Lead Is Safe

The Clinton Lumberkings, made famous in the book Class A Baseball in the Middle of Everywhere, pulled off a 20-17 victory last night over their hosts, the Burlington Bees. Even better, though, they did it after spotting the home team a 17-1 lead after five innings.

Oh, and the name of the rightfielder for the Klinton Komeback Kings? Burt Reynolds.

To finish the game, Clinton had to turn to their second baseman, who turned in a 1-2-3 inning for the save.

Here's a Yahoo game report.

That's why you never leave a game, kids.
