North Melbourne Beats Melbourne in Extra Innings
The Melbourne Demons got a superb performance from pitcher Decker Cartmell, but the North Melbourne Kangaroos still won the game, 4-3. Cartmell threw 5.1 innings allowing 1 runs. Reliever Herb Watcham picked up the win. His record improves to 3-0. Norm Riethmuller took the loss. Earning his 1st save of the year was Merle Hadden.

The outcome might have been different for North Melbourne, had it not been for John Mayo, the former first round draft pick . Mayo stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put North Melbourne up, 4-3. For the game, he was 3 for 5, including 1 double and 2 singles.

"This kind of game is tough on the heart," said winning manager G Maloney.

The Kangaroos, at 20-28, sit in 9th place in the National League.
