Brentwood drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning when they tallied 2 runs on 2 hits. The big moment was provided by Babe Ruth who made the home-town crowd a happy bunch when he lifted one out of the park for a two run home run (his 10th of the season). Brentwood banged out 7 on the afternoon. The win went to Herb Score(6-1) who allowed 2 runs in 7 innings. Score got relief help from Goose Gossage who gained credit for his 9th save. Lefty Grove(3-5) took the loss. Brentwood won for the 6th straight time. |
