WEB GEMS- Bot 5th: Charlie Gehringer robbed Joe Cronin of a base hit.

Ernie Banks blasted 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI as the Brentwood Bearcats
defeated the Limerick Hurlers in 12 innings 5 to 4 at Shibe Park.

The game was deadlocked at 4 after nine full innings.  Brentwood won it in the
12th inning.  Babe Ruth became the sole author of the rally when he cracked a
bases-empty home run (his 5th of the season).  Brentwood had 12 hits for the
night. 

Luis Tiant(1-0) got credit for the victory, pitching 2 innings and allowing no
runs. Tiant got help from Goose Gossage who was credited with his 5th save.
Babe Adams(0-1) took the loss in relief.
