| Keystones Suffer One-Run Loss at Baltimore | The Baltimore Clippers picked up a win at Patapsco Field, knocking off the Philadelphia Keystones, 5-4. Starting pitcher Buck Guthrie played a key role in the triumph. Guthrie, now 1-0, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 4, walking 4, and allowing 4 runs. Baltimore, now 2-0, is setting the league on fire so far.
Hal Blank contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With a runner on 2nd, he reached on an error by the 1B, driving in 1 run. His at-bat helped Baltimore get the win.
"It's not about individual awards," Guthrie told a Baltimore Observer reporter after the game. "It's about winning championships. That's what we play for." | |
