Road Win Lifts Cleveland to 1-0 Lead in WCS
The Cleveland Foresters wasted no time taking the lead in the World Championship Series, beating the Philadelphia Keystones at Broad Street Park II by the score of 5-3. The win gives Cleveland a 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Foresters left-hander Jake Pearson threw 6.0 innings of 4-hit ball.

Hal Kennedy, who finished 5th in the CA in OPS with .925 in 1958, chipped in a 2-run home run for Cleveland in the top of the sixth. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"I'm starting to think about what I might spend my World Championship Series bonus on," Kennedy said with a smile.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Broad Street Park II in Philadelphia.
