MOULTRIE — Rain washed out Friday’s recreation baseball schedule — and those games will not be made up — but champions have been decided in all four leagues.
Tiny Mites finished play on Thursday, with Baell Mercantile defeating MPrints and Mobley Plant winning over Quality Employment, with both games decided by 10-9 scores.
