Johnny Mize hit 2 doubles and had 3 RBI as the Lake Erie Mohawks defeated the
Cleveland Mayors 5 to 4 at Network Asc Coliseum.

Lake Erie had 2 runs cross the plate in the bottom of the 3rd inning when they
had 3 base hits.  The highlight belonged to Mize who made the home-town crowd
a happy bunch when he doubled plating two runs.  Cleveland made it exciting
in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across. 

The win was credited to Pete Alexander(11-5) who went 7 innings allowing 3
runs. Alexander got help from Hoyt Wilhelm who earned his 22nd save.  The
loss was charged to Steve Karsay(1-3). 

With this win, Lake Erie has a division leading 61-41 record.  They have been
7-3 lately.  With the loss, the Cleveland ballclub's record is 36-68, worst
in the division.
