| Pioneers Win Thriller, 7-6 | Sam Hamilton did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to spare the New York Gothams an extra-inning, 7-6 loss to the St. Louis Pioneers at Pioneer Field III. Hamilton went 4-5 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times. St. Louis reliever Lloyd Ethridge picked up the win, upping his record to 6-6. Herb Isom was saddled with the loss. The Pioneers improved to 57-59.
The game was decided with one out in the bottom of the tenth. With St. Louis trailing 6-5, Frank Green hit a fastball from Herb Isom to center for a 2-run single. Just like that, the Pioneers had a walk-off win.
"Drama and more drama," said Pioneers manager Babe Johnson. "That's baseball at its finest." | |
