Bob Lemon was able to finish what he started and was credited with a complete game as the Brentwood Bearcats staged a dramatic comeback over the Limerick Hurlers by a score of 6 to 5 at Tiger Stadium. Brentwood came through with the game-winning runs in the bottom of the 9th inning scoring 2 runs on 2 hits. After an out was recorded, Charlie Gehringer started the attack as he slapped a base-hit. After another out, Babe Ruth stepped in and he smashed a two-run homer (his 21st of the season) making Brentwood the victor and beginning a joyous home town celebration. Brentwood finished with 13 hits in the victory. The win went to Lemon(6-5) who allowed 5 runs in the game. The loss was charged to Lady Baldwin(0-1) in relief. He surrendered 1 hit and no walks in 1/3 of an inning. Brentwood's manager was all smiles after the ballgame, 'It sure was looking pretty dim there for a while, but our guys never gave up - and neither did our fans - they kept cheering us on. What a sweet win!' |
