Bowsers Lose 4-2 Decision to Poplar Bluff
The Poplar Bluff Hillbillies topped the Columbus Bowsers, 4-2, with youngster Bobby Phillips playing a key role. Phillips went 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs for the Hillbillies in the win. Jim Unknown went 7 innings for Poplar Bluff to pick up the win. The right-hander was charged with 1 run. He scattered 5 hits, while walking 5 and striking out 3. His record improves to 1-0. The Hillbillies, with only their 6th win in 27 games, could be the worst team in the league.

Making an impact for the home team was Jerry Alvarado. In the bottom of the second, the 22-year old catcher had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. That made the score 2-0, Hillbillies.

"Bobby is still learning," said Hillbillies manager Adrian Mercado. "The sky's the limit for him."
