The PVYBL Mickey Mantle postseason got underway on Monday, as Frontier opened the double-elimination tournament against Dalton.
Dalton held the Frontier bats to just five hits and one run in the sixth inning, with Dalton coming to South Deerfield and walking away with a 5-1 victory.
Ben Caron cracked three hits, Grayson Loos knocked an RBI double and Harry West hit safely for Frontier. West struck out two and scattered three hits in five innings work on the mound before Aidan Heffernan came on and struck out two while allowing one hit in the final two innings.
Frontier will face a to be determined opponent on Wednesday.
