FAIRMONT \u2014 After the first round of action at the West Virginia American Legion Baseball Area 2 Tournament, Fairmont Post 17 finds themselves in a bit of a tough spot.<\/p>\n
Post 17 dropped their opening matchup in the tournament to Clarksburg Post 13 on Tuesday, falling in a 4-1 loss. Despite averaging double-digit runs in their three games prior, including two against Clarksburg, their bats came up dry at the worst possible time.<\/p>\n
