WEB GEMS- Top 2nd: Heine Groh robbed Jimmie Foxx of a base hit.

Boog Powell jacked one out of the ballyard and had 2 RBI as the Limerick
Hurlers rallied impressively to win in dramatic style over ice-cold Kelso
Hilanders, 8 to 7.

Limerick came through with the game-winning runs in the bottom of the 9th
inning with 3 runs utilizing 2 base hits.  Powell initiated the scoring when
he cracked a solo homerun (his 1st of the season).  Kevin Mitchell stepped up
to the plate and he drew a walk.  George Grantham then laid down a sacrifice
bunt.  Elston Howard was up next and he drew a walk.  A balk was called.
Highpockets Kelly added to the rally and was walked intentionally to load the
bases.  Heine Groh came next and he drew a walk bringing in another run.
Jesse Tannehill then delivered a one-base hit resulting in a mighty exciting
win for Limerick and the 40,473 home town fans in attendance.  Although they
lost, Kelso did out-hit Limerick 14 to 10. 

Tannehill(3-2) allowed no runs in 4 innings, and picked up the victory. Mitch
Williams(0-2) was the losing pitcher in relief.  'That was exciting!,' Powell
said.  'I would have paid money to watch this one.'
