WEB GEMS- Top 2nd: Frankie Frisch robbed Hal Trosky of a base hit.

Third baseman Mel Ott hit a homerun and had 2 RBI as the Limerick Hurlers
outscored the Bat Cracking Bombers in 12 innings 8 to 3.

The score was knotted at 3 after nine innings.  Limerick won the hard fought
contest in the 12th inning.  The key offensive moment was provided by Ott who
disappointed the partisan crowd when he bombed a two-run dinger (his 20th of
the season).  Limerick totaled 14 on the night. 

David Cone(1-2) allowed no runs in 2/3 of an inning, and picked up the
victory. Dutch Leonard(0-3) was the losing pitcher in relief.  The Limerick
ballclub's record now stands at 60-69.  With the loss, Bat Cracking has a
record of 4-6 lately, 74-58 overall.
