WEB GEMS- Bot 3rd: Frankie Frisch robbed Joe Jackson of a base hit.
          Top 8th: Mickey Cochrane blocked the plate, saving a run!

Shortstop George Davis jacked one out of the ballyard and had 3 RBI at Network
Asc Coliseum where the very potent Lake Erie Mohawks beat the Bat Cracking
Bombers 7 to 6.

Davis made sure the Lake Erie fans enjoyed themselves.  He smashed a solo-shot
out of the park (his 4th of the season) in the 3rd inning, doubled which was
good for two runs in the 6th inning and doubled in the 8th inning.  Bat
Cracking made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed
runs across. 

The win went to Ed Reulbach(19-4) who allowed 4 runs in 7 innings. Reulbach
got help from Doc White who was credited with his 4th save.  Christy
Mathewson(13-10) was charged with the loss.  He got hit pretty hard, allowing
10 hits and 3 walks in 7 innings. 

'I didn't have my best stuff but sometimes you just get lucky,' Reulbach said,
'this was one of those times.'
