5/2/76: Lionville Sweeps Kimberton, 5-3

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:

How about that - a doubleheader sweep without a call to the bullpen! Works for me. Randy gets to 5 wins before any other pitcher in the league gets to 4! He wasn't dominant like Lefty was in the earlier game, but he was in command all the way, and he finished strongly, retiring 7 of the last 8 batters he faced. Big 2-run blast by Bull to put us ahead to stay. Maybe his slump is over. Now Honey Brook comes in for a big series - the end of the 13-game home stand. We're tied with them for the top spot going in.
