Kings Score Late, Stun Wolves, 6-4 | Toronto got a big-time effort from pitcher Jerry York, but it wasn't enough to keep the Brooklyn Kings from winning the game, 6-4. York threw 7.2 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. The winner in relief was Pete Brown. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 5 innings. He now owns a record of 1-0. Clarence Barton closed the game out for Brooklyn, earning his 3rd save.
Brooklyn used the clutch hitting of Billy Bryant to capture the win. The shortstop drilled a bases-clearing double in the top of the eighth inning to give the Kings the lead, 6-4. For the game, Bryant had 1 single and 1 double in 4 at-bats.
"Enjoyed this one," Bryant told the Brooklyn Chronicle. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
Brooklyn has a 4-game win streak, while Toronto has lost 4 in a row. | |
