Bat Cracking took the lead for keeps in the 7th inning scoring a single run. Grand River threatened in the 9th but Bat Cracking was able to put down the rally. The victory was credited to Christy Mathewson(9-5) who went 8 innings, allowing 2 runs. Bruce Sutter got the save, his 18th. Rube Waddell(6-6) was charged with the loss. He pitched 7 innings and surrendered 6 hits and 1 walk. Bat Cracking's manager was in a talkative mood in the clubhouse, 'Great game! If only we could win all of the close ones - wouldn't that be nice! Since that's not going to happen, I think I'll savor this one for a little while.' |
