Boonville

Well, that about, uh, fills us in on the situation as we get close to the start of this third ball game of the '45 series.

But, uh, here present with his ever-present Boonville, Missouri smile is the well-known sports columnist, your friend and mine, Bill Corum.

Bill, from Missouri, come in.

Thank you, Bill Slater.

Yeah, Billy Corum almost caught that one, but he missed it.

He caught one yesterday.

Been giving us that Boonville, Missouri baseball training of his [laughs] ever since.

Two strikes is the count on York, one out, nobody on, last of the fifth.

Missouri River flooding is producing closures.

The river at Boonville read twenty-three point high feet Sunday afternoon against a twenty-one foot flood stage and is forecast near twenty-five point two feet this morning, a level at which farm levees overtop and Easley River Road floods.

Both access roads to Cooper's Landing south of Columbia are expected to close, and the business has deployed newly installed floodgates.

Minor to moderate flooding is also forecast on the Missouri at Hermann, Jefferson City, and Glasgow, and on the Grand River near Brunswick and Sumner.
