WEB GEMS- Bot 6th: Ted Simmons blocked the plate, saving a run!

The Hibbing Dylans nipped the Cincinatti Royalty 4 to 3 at The Launch Palace
in a hard fought contest.

Hibbing set the tone of the game in the first inning when they came up with 3
runs on 3 hits.  The big moment was provided by Ted Simmons who deflated the
mood of the partisan fans when he lofted a three-run bomb.  Hibbing had just
6 hits for the afternoon.  

The victory was credited to Joe Niekro(1-1) who went 7 and 2/3 innings,
allowing 1 run. Niekro was helped out by Joe Sambito who recorded his 3rd
save.  Mike Torrez(0-1) was charged with the loss.  He pitched 7 and 2/3
innings and surrendered 5 hits and 3 walks.

With this win, Hibbing has a 5-9 record.  They have been 3-7 lately.  With the
loss Cincinatti now has a record of 2-2.
