Indians win streak snapped at three, top rival Yazoo County
| 
| 
Just hours after defeating their longtime rival, Yazoo City had their three game winning streak snapped Saturday after falling to Clinton in five innings 12-2. The Indians fell to 2-2 in district play heading into Tuesday’s match up with Neshoba Central.
The Indians swept Canton in district play Friday 7-3, before topping Yazoo County 17-4. If the Indians can at least split with Neshoba this week, they still have a chance for second.
Saturday’s loss was the most runs they’ve allowed since their 12-0 shutout lost to Ridgeland.
After scoring the game’s first run, Yazoo City was pretty much dormant, scattering six hits in the ball game, none with runners in scoring position. Clinton tied the game at 1-1 in the second, before scoring six in the third and four in the fourth for an 11-run advantage that started with a throwing error. A scary moment for the Indians when outfielder Tre Richardson hit the wall when chasing a fly-ball.

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
