George Sisler jacked one out of the ballyard and had 3 RBI as the Cleveland
Mayors defeated the Lake Erie Mohawks by the score of 10 to 9 at League
Park.

Sisler had a good day at the plate.  He smashed a solo-shot out of the park
(his 10th of the season) in the 1st inning, banged out a single knocking in a
run in the 5th inning and doubled which scored a run in the 7th inning.  Lake
Erie had a chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short. 

John Clarkson(4-0) picked up the victory, allowing 6 runs in 6 and 1/3

innings. Dennis Eckersley was credited with his 30th save.  Sandy
Koufax(16-9) suffered the loss.  He allowed 3 homeruns in 5 innings of work.

'He gutted it out' Cleveland's manager said of Clarkson.  'I was very
impressed by his tenacity.'
