WEB GEMS- Bot 7th: Sid Gordon robbed Hank Greenberg of a base hit.

Shortstop Tony Lazzeri blasted 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI as the Grand River
Ghostmen topped the Brentwood Bearcats in 14 innings by a score of 12 to 11
at Tiger Stadium.

The game was deadlocked at 9 after nine full innings. Grand River was
victorious in the 14th inning.  Lazzeri started the inning off right when he
was hit by a pitch.  Cecil Travis stepped into the batter's box and he
doubled.  Billy Hamilton then would hit into a fielders choice knocking in a
run.  Hamilton stole second with some aggressive base running.  Tim Raines
came to the plate and lined a one-base hit which was good for two more runs.
Grand River had 15 hits for the night. 

Bill Dailey(2-0) was the winner allowing 2 runs in 2 innings. John Franco(5-3)
absorbed the loss in relief.  He gave up 3 runs in 2 innings of work.
