SYRACUSE — Davis County Democrats and Republicans will take to the diamond Saturday for their second annual softball game.

The contest will begin at 7 p.m. at Syracuse Founders Park, 1500 S. 1900 West in Syracuse.

Davis Republicans chairman Ben Horsley said the game was a big hit in 2006. In that game, the Republicans soundly beat the Democrats in a defeat not unlike election night for partisan offices, Horsley said.

But Davis County Democrats chairman Richard Watson said the game was tied until the last inning, when the Republicans took a 10-run lead.

"It just wasn't right," Watson said.

This year, Watson said, he is looking for some heavy hitters to join his team. Horsley said his team is nearly full.

For more information, call Watson at 801-540-3146 or Horsley at 801-529-4387.
