Greens Win To Bolster League Lead
Harold Lefty Liell blanked the Leavenworth Generals 6 to 0 for Lawrence, his second shutout against the Generals. Liell allowed four scattered hits, struck out nine, and aided by eight Greens hits including a Liell two-bagger. The win placed Lawrence a game and a half ahead in the eastern Kansas Ban Johnson league standings. The Greens pound out eight hits and used bunts for two runs in the sixth, while Liell drove in two runs and scored once. The game featured a drab afternoon with a larger crowd, and Lawrence faces Emporia and Leavenworth in a busy weekend schedule.
