The Athens Bobkittens had very little trouble at Tiger Stadium downing the Bat
Cracking Bombers in 11 innings.  The score was 11 to 5.

The game was deadlocked at 5 after nine full innings.  Athens ended up winning
it in the 11th inning.  The critical plate appearance was by Lou Gehrig who
deflated the crowd as he doubled bringing in two baserunners.  Athens ended
up with 18 hits for the game while Bat Cracking had 12. 

The winning pitcher was Mark Eichhorn(2-2) who allowed no runs in 1/3 of an
inning. Dazzy Vance(1-3) was the loser in relief.  He was knocked around,
surrendering 7 runs in 3 and 2/3 innings.
