7/25/76: Lionville Silences Marshallton, 6-0

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:

Joe and Randy - they're our leaders: Joe got us off on the right foot by belting Strom's 5th pitch over the fence; then Randy took over. He was a little shaky early on but he got better as the game progressed. It was his league-leading 18th win, 13th complete game, and 4th shutout. I salute you, Captain Jones! We took 3 straight from the Hatters after losing the series opener. At 9½ games our grip on the top spot is looking a lot tighter than it did a couple nights ago - a reason to smile some. On to The Nest for a 3-game set.
