Welch Socks 2 Home Runs in 8-3 Los Angeles Win
No one was more impactful than Jack Welch in the 8-3 Los Angeles win over San Francisco. Welch, who finished 5th in the CA in home runs with 20 in 1946, was 2-3 with 2 home runs, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 3 times and drove in 5. With the win, Los Angeles climbs to 13-10.

With Los Angeles leading 4-3 in the top of the ninth, Welch hit a slider from Dan Atwater for a grand slam home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season and put the Stars ahead, 8-3.

Welch attributed the win to his team's "focus and intensity."
