6/16/76: Kimberton Jars Lionville, 5-3

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:
We're a different team without Morgan. He had personal business to take care of tonight. He was due for a night off anyway, but it would have been nice to have had him available to pinch-hit. Add Randy's ineffectiveness to Joe's absence and it's a recipe for a loss. I don't know what was wrong with Randy tonight but he had nothing. When Pepe Mangual - Pepe Mangual! - homers off you, that was the last straw. I had to lift him. Willie Davis, taking Joe's leadoff spot, was one of our few bright spots with his 8th triple and first bomb. At least Eagle did us the favor of knocking off Marshallton again. We're ready for you, Eagles.

got on base in his 1/3 of an inning.  Devault had a chance in the 9th but
they came up short.

pitcher in relief.  Barry Bentley was in a talkative mood in the clubhouse,
'Great game! If only we could win all of the close ones - wouldn't that be
nice! Since that's not going to happen, I think I'll savor this one for a
little while.'

hits and 4 walks in 8 innings.

6/15/76: Lionville Bests Kimberton, 5-2

Tiger-Cats manager Jon Brams:
Nice to see Hooton go the distance. Give him credit. He really wriggled his way out of a few jams. We got some clutch 2-out hitting by Reitz, Davis, and Martin. That's getting to be a hallmark of this club. Randy goes for the sweep tomorrow night. I see Kong Kingman hit 2 more bombs in the losing cause for the Dynamiters. That gives him 25 … a Ruth-ian pace!
