Billy Hamilton had 4 hits and 4 RBI at League Park as the Grand River Ghostmen, running on all cylinders, ripped the Cleveland Mayors by a large 16 to 2 margin. Hamilton enjoyed a big evening at the plate. He doubled in the 1st inning, doubled clearing the bases in the 2nd inning, doubled in the 7th inning and blasted a solo shot (his 3rd of the season) in the 9th inning. Grand River bats were hot in the 2nd inning with 7 runs on 5 hits. Grand River had many opportunities throughout the game and scored in 6 separate innings. Lefty Grove(1-2) picked up the victory, allowing 2 runs in 8 and 2/3 innings. Sid Fernandez(0-2) absorbed the loss. He gave up 8 runs and 5 hits in 1 and 2/3 innings. 'Some days it just all comes together, and this was one of them' Hamilton said. 'I've been seeing the ball pretty well lately.' |
