Sid Gordon smashed 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI and Nap Rucker was able to finish
what he started and was credited with a complete game as the Grand River
Ghostmen topped the Harvey Wallbangers by a score of 11 to 2 at SAFECO
Field.

Gordon provided much of the offense.  He cleared the fences for a two-run home
run in the 1st inning, blasted a two-run home run (his 7th of the season) in
the 6th inning and doubled which scored a run in the 8th inning.  Grand River
managed 12 in their victory. 

The win was credited to Rucker(2-0) who went the whole way allowing 2 runs.
Hooks Wiltse(9-4) suffered the loss.  He allowed 5 hits and no walks in 2/3
of an inning. 

'I was really seeing the ball tonight,' Gordon said 'I wish it was always this
easy.'
