Juniors baseball state tourney
After a pair of one-run losses Saturday, Iron Mountain played its final game Sunday in the Michigan Little League Juniors (ages 13-14) state baseball tournament. Here, at Felch Field, Iron Mountain's Daniel Doers delivers a pitch against Southern (Grand Rapids) in the third inning of Sunday's 17-7 defeat. Iron Mountain's Jeb Holsworth loses his helmet as he crosses home plate — one of three runs he scored in the contest. Southern, who on Saturday posted wins of 23-3 over Saginaw and 16-0 over Emmett, survived the championship semifinals Monday with a 14-11 victory in eight innings over Roosevelt Park. Negaunee advanced to the finals with a 4-3 win Monday over Emmett and defeated Southern 6-2 to claim the state title. (Betsy Bloom/Daily News photos)
