Letter: Eleanor Sonsini Shelter Left Out

Letter to the EditorPrint Story | Email Story

To the Editor:

So I see the story about the ground breaking for a new building for the [Berkshire] Humane Society and I can't help but wonder, 'Why are funds and news articles always going to/about the Humane Society?'

Why isn't the Sonsini Shelter given the same funds and publicity? Am I missing something? Sonsini needs a new facility, Sonsini needs funds!

Holden Ends Pittsfield's Run in 10-Year-Old Sectional

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires.com Sports
PITTSFIELD, Mass. – Preston Miller laced a one-out single into right field to drive in Brady St. Amand from third as the Holden Little League 10-year-old All-Stars Monday walked off an 8-7 win over Pittsfield in the Section 1 Tournament Championship Game.
 
Pittsfield, which earned a berth in the winner-take-all final game with a walkoff win at Holden on Sunday, battled back from a 6-1 deficit to lead midway through the third only to see Holden scratch out a run in the fifth to tie it and generate the game-winner one inning later.
 
It was the third time in Pittsfield’s five sectional tournament games that the game was decided in the winning team’s final at-bat.
 
After seeing his squad play five games in five days, including four on the road, Pittsfield coach Matt Stracuzzi told his players they played with guts and made him proud in the postgame ceremony.
 
“They showed a lot of heart,” Stracuzzi said moments later. “We played some really good games. The only bad game we had was [Friday] against Dalton. … But we played some tough games on the road against some good teams, and we prevailed because we stuck together.
 
“And they did the little things.”
 
And on Monday, when Pittsfield faced a little adversity early in the night, it pushed through.
