Phillip B. Elfstrom Stadium, Geneva, Illinios
Game 2 of Doubleheader

COUGARS WIN 5TH IN A ROW, IN PITCHERS DUEL

This Was a first for this year with a 1-0 score in a really good pitchers
duel. The Cougars sent out Bill Villaneuva who after giving up a lead
off double in the 1st would not give up another hit in his six innings
of work. While he did hit three Bandits and walk one Bill had great contro.
This game eventhough it was only 7 innings was 1:29 in lenght. Villanueva
looked almost to be getting stronger by the end of the game striking out
4 Bandits in his last three innings. He only struck out 4 all game.

On the other side Tim Sturdy would work the entire game and only give up three
hits to the Cougars. Sturdy retied the first 12 Cougars he faced, eventhough
Callahan would get on from an error in the seconf but would get caught stealing
later in the inning. The part that was good for Tim was he retired 8 of the 12 on
ground balls.

The only scoring in the game was for the Cougars in the 5th when
Matt Padgett lead it off with a singled to left to break up the no-hitter
Dave Callahan was then called out on batter's interference. On the play
that Callahan was called out on Padgett was caught stealing. Kelley Washington
then singled to center, stole second and then would score on Kevin Perkins
double to center.
