North Melbourne Roughed Up By Bombers
Matthew Holder batted in 4 runs to lead Newcastle to a win over North Melbourne. The final score was 9-3. Holder chipped in with 1 single and 2 home runs. The winning pitcher was Herb Bartholomew. He tossed 88 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 3 runs on 4 hits. The win for the Bombers raised their record to 65-52.

The Bombers got an important contribution from catcher Everett Essex, who in the bottom of the first punched a 0-1 sinker into right for a 2-run double. It was his 30th double of the season and put the Bombers ahead, 3-0.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Essex.
