Monroe Drillers Win as Bobo HR Floors Hill Billies
In a nine inning clash at Forsythe Park Monroe defeats Vicksburg 5 to 3 after Lou Bobo hits a decisive homer off Maurice Clark with Herb Sadler aboard. Porters and Clark held the game tight until Bobo's late blast. The Drillers rally from early deficits and threaten into the ninth as Nicely played defense and timely hitting from Piet, Phelps, and Granado fuel the comeback. The teams head to Vicksburg for three more games as Simmons joins the catching corps and Kalina's signing is pursued.
