Joe Dimaggio added four ribbies to his seasonal total with one swing of the
bat as the Lake Erie Mohawks outscored the Brentwood Bearcats 6 to 5.

Lake Erie did all the necessary damage in the 7th inning scoring 6 runners on
4 hits.  The key offensive moment was provided by Dimaggio who quieted the
crowd when he emptied the bases with a Grand Slam homerun (his 21st of the
season).  Brentwood had a chance to come back in the 9th but they came up
short. 

The victory was credited to Ed Reulbach(13-4) who went 6 innings, allowing 3
runs. Hoyt Wilhelm recorded his 21st save.  Goose Gossage(1-6) was the losing
pitcher in relief.  He was not very effective, surrendering 3 runs in 2 and
2/3 innings. 

Brentwood's manager was clearly disappointed after the game. 'It was a
manager's nightmare out there', he said, 'We should have had this one.'
