Bobby Bonds hit a homerun and had 2 RBI at Tiger Stadium where the Bat
Cracking Bombers beat the Brentwood Bearcats in 12 innings by the score of 5
to 3.

The game was deadlocked at 3 after nine full innings.  Bat Cracking won it in
the 12th inning.  After an out was recorded, Duke Snider keyed the rally when
he banged out a single.  Bonds came next and he cleared the fences for a
two-run home run (his 6th of the season) resulting in a mighty exciting win
for Bat Cracking and the 19,582 home town fans in attendance.  Bat Cracking
totaled 10 on the night. 

Jim Bunning(2-0) got the win allowing no runs in 2/3 of an inning. Luis
Tiant(1-1) was the losing pitcher in relief.  He gave up 2 hits and no walks
in 1/3 of an inning.
