Bob Lemon pitched 8 strong innings as the Brentwood Bearcats defeated the
Grand River Ghostmen by a score of 4 to 2 at Yankee Stadium.

Brentwood took the lead for good in the top of the 3rd inning scoring one
runner.  Grand River made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to
push the needed runs across. 

Lemon(12-8) was the winner allowing 1 run in 8 innings. Lemon got help from
Goose Gossage who was credited with his 21st save.  J.R. Richard(0-1) was the
losing pitcher.  He allowed 4 runs and 8 hits in 8 innings. 

'Fundamentals, fundamentals, fundamentals' said Buck Guthrie after the game.
'We lost this game tonight because we didn't follow the instructions every
Little Leaguer hears every day.'
