Bannermen Take Down Vulcans, 3-2, in 10 | The Baltimore Bannermen picked up a win at Banner Field, downing the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 3-2, in 10 innings. On the mound for Baltimore was right-hander Harlan Beesley, who played a pivotal role in the win. Beesley, who leads the IA in wins with 3, went the distance for Baltimore. He gave up 2 runs on 6 hits. Baltimore, with the win, is 4-2.
Batting in the bottom of the tenth, 31-year old left fielder Curt Johnston had a real shot to win the game. Pittsburgh pitcher Dennis Catchings was determined not to let it happen. But with two outs, Johnston hit a run-scoring single. The Bannermen had a walk-off triumph.
"That's how you're going to be successful," said Bannermen manager . "It starts with pitching and it will always be pitching." | | | | |
