Letter: Bridge/Road repair

To the Editor:

I sympathize with the people on Holmes Road with their bridge in disrepair. Just come on out to the Peck's Road Causeway, Hancock area, and you'll see more barrels and barriers and one-lane lights in such a small area.

It's a shame that the city has let its infrastructure get that bad but mind you we've got bike paths and one-way roads and beautification on North Street. It reminds me of Atlantic City ,one block off of North Street and it turns into a city of disrepair with rising crime!

County's Little League Teams Fall in Openers of Sectional Tournaments

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com Sports
PITTSFIELD, Mass. – It was a rough start for the Berkshire County contingent in the Little League sectionals for 10-year-olds and 11-year-olds on Thursday night.
 
In the 10-year-old bracket, both District 1 Champion Pittsfield and runner-up Dalton-Hinsdale lost on the road.
 
In the 11s, Pittsfield opened the tournament at home but dropped a 10-0 decision in four innings.
 
The good news is that all three teams live to fight another day in the double-elimination tournament, and all three will be close to home on Friday night in elimination games.
 
The 11-year-olds will be back at Deming Park at 5:30 to face the loser of Thursday’s game between the champions from District 2 and District 4.
 
Meanwhile, at Chamberlain Park in Dalton, Dalton-Hinsdale and Pittsfield will meet in a win-or-go-home game and a rematch of last week’s best-of-three district championship series.
 
The 12-year-old Section 1 Tournament, the next step on the road to Williamsport, Pa., gets underway on July 21 with District 1 Champion Pittsfield on the road.
