Cannons Spill Foresters, 2-1 | Pitching was the name of the game in a tight contest between the Cincinnati Cannons and the Cleveland Foresters. Cincinnati won it, 2-1. Cincinnati starter Paul Williams was in command. Earning his 5th save of the year was Denny Cecil. With this game in the books, Cincinnati is 57-60, Cleveland 66-49.
A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the sixth, with the game tied, Bill Barrett was at the plate when Cincinnati scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Cannons to go in front, 1-0.
"Tough loss," said Cleveland manager Art Newton. "But that's how the chips sometimes fall." | |
