5/27/77: Lionville Trips Guthriesville, 4-1, Behind Swan, Simmons

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:

Good start by Swan. Both his fastball and curve were working for him. Simba continues to tear the cover off the ball. He seems to like being DH. I thought he was poised to make some history. After he had tripled and doubled, he belted one I thought was going to go, but it bounced off the wall about 2 feet from the top. Moot point I guess since he flied out later in the 8th. Chester Springs got beat again, so we sneak a little closer.
