Grieshaber, Ruef, and Harvey
each had two hits a piece in the
nine-hit Behrend barrage.
Don Raydo took the second
game scattering six hits and two
runs as Behrend won 8-3. Tom
Wright, the Cub’s star hurler,
went three for four with 2 RBl’s
while playing in the outfield. Jim
Grieshaber rapped 2 hits and
knocked in a pair of runs.
Behrend took on visiting
McKeesport Campus and split a
doubleheader dropping the first
game 8-5, but bouncing back to
take the nightcap 4-3 Saturday,
The loss was the third of the
season for the Cubs and it
snapped a six-game winning
streak.
The visitors jumped on
Behrend starter Tom Wright for
five quick runs in the third inning
to take a 5-1 lead. Paul Neff had a
3-hitter going for McKeesport
until he ran into control problems
in the sixth when he walked three
consecutive batters to load the
bases. Behrend’s first baseman
Dave Ruef stroked a single to
right, knocking in two runs. Jim
Bowser and Tom Harvey
followed with run-scoring singles
to tie the game at 5-all before the
inning was over.
Behrend was denied the victory
as McKeesport scored three
times in their half of the seventh
on one hit. Errors were the Cubs
downfall as they make some bad
