Westfield Post 124 Juniors have been unbeat- able. Westfield posted its second straight one-run victory to begin the American Legion Baseball playoffs, defeating Agawam 5-4 Thursday night at Bullens Field. Westfield (16-2) advances to the title game Sunday. Game details are TBD. Just like Wednesday’s game, Westfield struck first and it proved to be a crucial run. In the second inning, David Tirrell drew a one-out walk and advanced to third with a two-out double in the right-center field gap. Agawam pitcher Ryan Laudato bounced back with a nasty curve ball that the bottom dropped out of to freeze the next batter and escape unscathed. That was not the case in the next inning. Jagger Paroline and Paul Shibley singled for Westfield. No. 3 hitter Brian Strange fol- lowed with a deep blast to right center field, scoring both base runners.

HINTS FROM HELOISE Gas can concern Dear Heloise: The recent reader letter on an EMERGENCY ROAD KIT was infor- mative and timely. We are planning a long road trip and will assemble a kit as out- lined. However, the recommendation of includ- ing a gas can needed a strong caveat. Never, and I mean never, put a can of gasoline inside your car -- trunk included, but especially not in the passenger compartment. Gasoline and fumes are a bomb. Fumes from a supposedly “empty” can may easily ignite. A full can is a lethal disaster -- if the escaping fumes don’t ignite, almost any accident is likely to result in an explosion. -- Harry L., via e-mail Harry, thank you for this very important warning. No one should carry a can of gas in a vehicle of any kind. An empty can with a cap, in case of an emergency, might be advisable, but drivers are better off filling up their gas tank frequently Jodie Whittaker, left, and Tosin Cole attend the “Doctor Who” panel on day one of Comic-Con International on Thursday, rather than risk running out. -- Heloise July 19, 2018, in San Diego.(Photo by Richard Shotwell/Invision/AP) GLOW IN THE DARK Dear Heloise: I follow you in The Northwest Indiana Times.
