Solons Outmuscle Hollywood, 10-9
|
The Sacramento Solons topped the Hollywood Stars by the score of 10-9, with the biggest share of the credit going to catcher Josh Gibson. Gibson went 1 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for the Solons on the day. Les Webber, the winning pitcher, improved to 1-2. He pitched 7 innings, giving up 8 hits and 6 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 1. The 7th-place Stars have dropped 9 straight games.
Oakland, California-born Lou Vezilich came through in the clutch. In the bottom of the seventh, with the bases loaded and the Solons trailing 6-5, he hit a 2-run single to center to put Sacramento on top.
"It was a solid team effort," said Vezilich after the game.
