The game was a shootout. To win it, the Buffalo Bellflowers had to outpace the Franklin Cubs. The final score was 11-10, Bellflowers. Neither team lacked hitting stars.

Clark Dulaney found himself in a pressure situation in the top of the eighth. Facing Franklin hurler Willie Vargas, the 19-year-old first baseman drew a walk, driving in 1 run. His 14th walk of the season put the Bellflowers on top, 11-10.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Franklin manager Kerry McElree. "But we decided not to take it."
