BASEBALL Caroline 5, Spotsylvania 4Caroline's Michael Williams quickly atoned for a dropped fly ball, making a strong and accurate throw to pitcher Tyler Wright, whose relay home was in time to cut down the tying run and end the game. Wright capped a four-run fourth for the Cavaliers (8-9-1, 4-4) with a two-run single. The inning also featured a run-scoring single by Williams and a suicide squeeze by Bruce Adair. Wright was three-for-three at-bat and also picked up a save. Williams, Kevin Miller and John Pitts of Caroline and Spencer Johnson of Spotsylvania finished with two hits apiece.
