Hal Brown(1-0) and Mickey McDermott(0-1) locked horns in a pitcher's duel with

Brown and the Kansas City A's coming out on top of the Fullerton Titans 2 to

1.

 

Kansas City set the tone of the game in the first inning plating an isolated

run.  Al Dark reached on an error.  After an out was recorded, Hank Bauer

came to bat and laced a single.  Don Lenhardt then hit a deep fly scoring the

run.  Both teams' bats went to sleep after the 3rd inning with no runs scored

after that point. 

 

Brown got help from Warren Hacker who earned his 1st save.  'I struggled a bit

out there tonight,' Brown said, 'but I toughed it out and we got the win.'
