TEAM RISP- Silver Sluggers: 2 for 7  Polecats: 4 for 11

Ron Cey left the yard and had 5 RBI as the Detroit Polecats bested the
Sterling Silver Sluggers 12 to 9 at Fulton County.

Cey provided much of the offense.  He clubbed a two-run home run in the 1st
inning, singled resulting in a run in the 3rd inning and lashed a single
which scored a run in the 6th inning.  Sterling had a chance to come back in
the 9th but they came up short.  

The win went to Alan Foster(4-2) who allowed 6 runs in 8 and 1/3 innings.
Jerry Koosman(7-11) was the loser.  He served up 3 homeruns in his 4 innings.

'This was a tough loss,' said Bill Sterling, 'the kind that sticks with you
for awhile.'
