5/15/77: Simmons Blasts 7th as Lionville Dispatches Eagle, 7-5

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:

We left 11 guys on - but at least we got 'em on. For this day that's how I'm telling myself to look at it. Joe, Simba, and Bull continue to swing hot bats. Carlton was average. For him that's lousy, if you know what I mean. Nice job by Leon and Reed to hold the lead and ensure win #5 for Lefty.
