Hank Aaron homered and had 2 RBI at Memorial Stadium as the Savannah
Rumrunners beat the Minnesota Loons 6 to 4.

Savannah set the tone of the game in the first inning plating 2 runs on 2
hits.  After an out was recorded, Floyd Robinson jump-started the rally as he
banged out a single.  Aaron stepped up to the plate and he lifted one out of
the park for a two run home run.  Savannah won despite being out-hit by
Minnesota 12 hits to 9.  

Tom Morgan(3-1) went 2 innings allowing no runs for the victory. Jim Kaat(7-7)
was the loser.  The Savannah ballclub's record now stands at 38-45.
Minnesota's manager was pretty down after the loss.  'We've really been
sputtering along lately, something like 0-10 in the last week or two.  That
won't get it done.'
