One run was the difference at Shibe Park as the Bat Cracking Bombers defeated
the Limerick Hurlers 8 to 7.

Bat Cracking scored the deciding run in the top of the 9th inning.  After two
were out Lefty O'Doul lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' (his 16th of the
season).  David Wells was perfect in relief and gained credit for his 3rd
save. 

Mario Soto(5-1) went 2/3 of an inning allowing no runs for the victory. Dick
Hall(1-2) was the losing pitcher in relief.  He gave up 1 run and 2 hits in 1
inning.
