WEB GEMS- Bot 5th: Gary Carter blocked the plate, saving a run!

Gary Carter rocketed 2 homeruns at The Looney Bin as the Sterling Silver
Sluggers beat the Minnesota Loons by the count of 5 to 3.

Sterling had 3 runs cross the plate in the 4th inning.  After an out was
recorded, Carter started the attack as he clubbed a solo home run.  One out
later, Reggie Jackson came up and he drew a walk.  Chris Chambliss then
popped a two-run clout over the fence.  Minnesota threatened in the 9th but
their rally came up short.  

Doyle Alexander(7-5) got credit for the victory, pitching 7 innings and
allowing 1 run. Jerry Koosman(6-8) was the loser.  He served up 3 homeruns in
his 6 innings.  

'Fundamentals, fundamentals, fundamentals' said Chris Kaufman after the game.
'We lost this game tonight because we didn't follow the instructions every
Little Leaguer hears every day.'
