Aces Stumble, Lose to Meatballs
The San Francisco Meatballs beat the Atlantic City Aces by a score of 8-4. San Francisco catcher Jake Brown deserved the lion's share of the credit. Brown was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Meatballs. The winning pitcher was Tom Pesky. He's now 6-3. He went 8 innings, allowing 4 runs on 5 hits for the Meatballs. The Meatballs have an impressive 27-14 record.

San Francisco used the clutch hitting of José Otero to capture the win. The center fielder drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Meatballs the lead, 6-4. For the game, Otero had 2 singles and 1 double in 5 at-bats.

"I like our moxie," said Meatballs manager John Rush.
