Baseball Westfield takes Game 1 over Fishers The first game of the Hoosier Cross- roads Conference series between Class 4A No. 2 Westfield and Fishers on Thurs- day featured a wild finish. The Tigers took the lead in the sixth inning, but the Shamrocks stormed back in the bottom of that inning, and held on for a 7-5 victory. The win keeps Westfield unbeaten in conference play at 5-0. The ‘Rocks scored the first run of the game in the first inning. Quentin Markle led off with a triple, then scored on Trey Dorton’s RBI groundout.
