The Brentwood Bearcats edged the Grand River Ghostmen at Tiger Stadium by the
score of 3 to 2.

Brentwood did all the necessary damage in the 8th inning scoring 3 runs
utilizing 4 base hits.  After an out was recorded, Babe Ruth began the
Brentwood spurt when he drew a walk.  Hank Greenberg was next and he banged
out a single.  Willie Stargell then rifled a three-run blast (his 28th of the
season).  Brentwood managed 8 in their victory. 

The victory went to John Franco(5-2) who went 2 innings, allowing 1 run. Rube
Kroh(1-1) was charged with the loss in relief.  He pitched 2/3 of an inning
and surrendered 3 hits and no walks.
