Lou Boudreau jacked one out of the ballyard and had 2 RBI and Dizzy Dean
blanked Limerick in a very well-pitched complete game at Yankee Stadium as
the Grand River Ghostmen embarrassed the Limerick Hurlers by the lopsided
score of 10 to 0.

Dean(5-0) was very good in the win.  He allowed just 4 hits and 5 walks in 9
innings lowering his ERA to 2.74.  Grand River simply wore out the Limerick
pitching staff, scoring in 6 different innings. 

Don Newcombe(2-4) was given the loss.  He served up 3 gopher balls in 5 and
1/3 innings.
