Foresters Win, 8-5, in 13
The Cleveland Foresters stopped the Los Angeles Stars, 8-5, in 13 innings at Bigsby Stadium. The Foresters got a big game from Athan Metrofanis, who was 4-7 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Cleveland pitcher Bob V James earned the win, hiking his record to 4-6. John Herzog suffered the loss. The Foresters lead the Continental Association East by a game.

The game was at a stalemate until right fielder John Piper came to bat in the top of the 13th. Facing Los Angeles pitcher John Herzog, he hit a 2-0 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Cleveland on top, 6-5.

"I play this game for myself and my family, but of course it's always nice when we can win," said Piper.
