Alumni player and district judge Charles A. “Lex” Short said the game was beneficial to others besides the Bulldogs and the Alumni.

“These kids, they’re ball players,” Short said. “I don’t feel like they gave us their best effort, but we had a good time and a lot of folks are out here supporting the Bulldogs and raising a little money for them.

“It’s good to get to know these kids and so many of these guys that are playing with (the Alumni) now were playing against the first year or two when we had this alumni game. It’s kind of a link between the past and the present, which is what it’s all about anyway.”
