7/9/77: Garvey, Harris Lead Elverson to 5-2 Win Over Lionville

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:

13 hits - everybody got at least 1 - and a fat lot of good it does us. An epidemic of stranded baserunners - 14 to be exact. Take the 5th (inning) - please. We load the bases with 1 out and Clines and Morales strike out. And that wasn't the only time we left them loaded. Disgusting. Lefty wasn't really very good. He hasn't won a game in 3 weeks. We have a losing record now - and frankly it's hard not to be pessimistic. We are, sorry to say, playing like losers.
