Gulls Lose After Holmquist Keeps Pitching Too Long
In Memphis yesterday the Gulls fell 3 to 2 in ten innings as Jeff Holmquist remained on the mound past the point of strain. Charley Schmidt's decision to leave him in led to a costly late rally by the Chicks with Pete Knisely delivering the deciding run. Handford debuted with a triple and Charley Burke, Handford, and Massey owned extra-base hits for Memphis.
