GAME 1 - 53-BKN 11, 47-BKN 9
Vic Lombardi vs Bill Loes

4-5 w/6 RBI's

The extreme firepower, which comes in the form of the 1953 Boys of Summer proved to be overwhelming this afternoon.  '47 jumped out to quick 3-0 lead in the top of the first, but a combined 7 runs allowed over 2 innings (6th/7th) did the '47 crew in.  Billy Loes, who gave up 5 runs in almost 7 innings of work notched the win even though he did not pitch all that particularly well.  His opponent, Vic Lombardi (a lefty), was pure fodder for the righty laden power lineup of the '53 squad.  Billy Cox and Jackie Robinson hit homers for the '53 squad.  Robinson went 4 for 5 and had 6 RBI's in a monster game.  Both teams posted 15 hits in a day where pitching was not a factor.
