5/8/76: Lionville Shocks Chester Springs, 10-7, in 12

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:

Great, great game! We really hung in there, stayed positive and patient at the plate (11 walks), and chipped away. Eddie's 1st bomb was timely as hell! And the bullpen was spectacular! I even got away with neglecting to pinch run for Hozay. The way he stormed home for that tying run in the 8th was a sight to behold!
