Greenberg was a thorn in the side of the hometown fans as he enjoyed a fine day at their team's expense. He stroked a base-hit resulting in a run in the 3rd inning, laced a single bringing in a run in the 5th inning and quieted the crowd by clouting a Grand Slam (his 8th of the season) in the 5th inning. Brentwood bats were hot in the 5th inning with 9 runs on 7 hits. The Brentwood offense man-handled the Bat Cracking pitching staff as they scored in 7 of the 9 innings. The victory went to Brown(2-1) who went the distance allowing 4 runs. The loss was charged to Christy Mathewson(2-2). He got hit pretty hard, allowing 10 hits and 4 walks in 4 and 1/3 innings. |
