Mike Piazza had 2 base hits as the Grand River Ghostmen outscored the N.
Ridgeville Bandits 3 to 0.

Grand River did all the necessary damage in the 4th inning as they scored 3
runs on 4 base hits.  The crucial at-bat was provided by Tim Raines who
thrilled the crowd when he doubled plating two runs.  After the 4th inning,
neither team was able to score. 

The victory was credited to George Winter(1-1) who went 3 innings, allowing no
runs. Winter got relief help from Andy Messersmith who gained credit for his
1st save.  Joe Wood(7-6) suffered the loss.  He allowed 6 hits and 1 walk in
7 innings. 

Grand River now has a record of 33-42.  N. Ridgeville's manager was unhappy
with his club's recent performance.  'We can't keep losing games' he said.
'It gets to be embarrassing after a while.'
