Bobby Richardson hit 2 doubles as the Sterling Silver Sluggers defeated the

Sterling had the game winning rally in the bottom of the 8th inning with 2
runs. After an out was recorded, Harry Bright initiated the scoring spurt
when he drew a walk. One out later, John Orsino stepped in and he smashed a
two-run homer. A wild affair, this game saw the lead change 5 times.
Chuck Estrada(1-1) allowed 5 runs in 8 innings, and picked up the victory.
Arnold Earley recorded the save, his 1st. Sandy Koufax(2-4) was tagged with
the loss. Despite losing, he struckout 11 Sterling batters in 8 innings.
'Wow. That's about all I can think to say.' said Sterling's manager following
the victory. 'If ever a team needed a win, it was us.'
