Cougars Mow Down Wranglers, 10-4 | The Chicago Cougars opened their 1963 season with a triumph over the Dallas Wranglers at Cougars Park. The final score was 10-4. Chicago first baseman Gene Case had a big game. He was 2 for 5 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Pug White wrapped it up, recording his 1st save.
In the bottom of the first, Case had a 3-run home run for Chicago. It was his 1st home run of the season and put the Cougars on top, 3-0.
"I'm trying to see the ball big, see the ball up in the zone and put the barrel on it," Case told the Chicago Chronicle. | |
