| Ranson Spins Gem for Cincinnati | In a tight game between the Cincinnati Monarchs and the Boston Brahmins, pitcher Kenneth Ranson was terrific on the mound. The Cincinnati left-hander helped his team to the 3-1 win. Cincinnati is second in the International Association with a record of 58-45.
Boston could barely put a dent in Ranson. The left-hander tossed 148 pitches over 9 innings for the Monarchs, allowing only 4 hits.
"Kenneth commanded the zone from bottom to top," said Cincinnati manager . | | | | |
