Sacramento Up By Two Games After Pitchers’ Duel in St. Louis
The Sacramento Solons moved one game closer to a world championship today, downing the St. Louis Cardinals on the road at Sportsman's Park by a score of 2-1. Solons left-hander Tony Freitas was named player of the game after a strong outing in which he threw 9 innings allowing 1 run. The win gives the Solons a 2-0 advantage in the best-of-seven World Series.

Sacramento used the bat of Joe Cronin to get the win. The shortstop hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Solons ahead, 2-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Freitas. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."

Game 3 is set to be played tomorrow. The scheduled starters for the game are Manny Salvo for the Sacramento Solons and Ken Heintzelman for the the St. Louis Cardinals.
