Wolves Hope Opening Day Win Bodes Well for Season | The Toronto Wolves started the 1950 season win an impressive 5-1 win against the Philadelphia Sailors at Dominion Stadium. George Garrison, the 3rd overall pick in the 1935 draft, led the way for Toronto.
With Toronto leading 3-1 in the bottom of the sixth, Garrison hit a 2-run single off Philadelphia hurler Charlie Gordon. It was the 1st hit of the season for Garrison and put his team ahead, 5-1.
"Getting ahead of the hitters was the key," said Garrison. | |
