WEB GEMS- Top 1st: George Davis robbed Joe Cronin of a base hit.

Sandy Koufax dominated striking out 13 Limerick batters and Jimmie Foxx
homered and had 3 RBI as the very potent Lake Erie Mohawks defeated the
Limerick Hurlers by a score of 6 to 1 at Network Asc Coliseum.

Foxx enjoyed a fine evening at the plate.  He doubled resulting in a run in
the 1st inning, lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' (his 22nd of the season) in
the 3rd inning and doubled which plated a run in the 8th inning.  Lake Erie
had 8 hits for the night. 

The victory was credited to Koufax(15-7) who went the distance, allowing 1
run. Billy Pierce(4-6) was given the loss.  Everyone seemed to enjoy the
performance of Koufax - except Limerick.  Jimmy Dugan lamented, 'He just was
'on' tonight.  He was keeping our guys off balance all game.  A fine game by
a good strikeout pitcher - makes it a fun game for the hometown fans -
unfortunately we were the visitors!'
