One run was the difference at Tiger Stadium as the Brentwood Bearcats defeated
the Limerick Hurlers in 10 innings 4 to 3.

The score was tied at 3 after nine.  Brentwood came out the victor in the 10th
inning.  After an out was recorded, Luke Appling drew a walk.  Babe Ruth
stepped into the batter's box and he lashed a single.  Ruth was safe on a
stolen base.  Hank Greenberg followed and he delivered a one-base hit giving
Brentwood the victory as 47,425 happy fans celebrated wildly.  Limerick was
out-hit by Brentwood, 10 hits to 7. 

The winning pitcher was Luis Tiant(3-3) who allowed no runs in 1 inning. Vic
Willis(3-1) was the losing pitcher in relief.  He pitched 2/3 of an inning
and surrendered 2 hits and 1 walk.
