7/26/77: Lionville Comes Back to Beat Eagle, 6-5, on Morgan's Homer

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:

That was a pretty eventful 2 hours and 8 minutes, I'll tell you. 4 batters in we were down 4-0. Hooton didn't let it get to him. He battled back and ended up getting the win, thanks to Bull's 2-run triple, Iorg's sac fly that scored Reitz, who's not exactly a speed merchant, and 3 M-bombs - Morales, Martin, and Morgan. Very good win.
