Bats Lose to Cosmos in Walk Off
The 5-4 Stratford win over Brooklyn was due largely to John Hester. The Cosmos center fielder was 2 for 4 with a home run and a triple. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The Cosmos have an impressive 41-18 record.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With no one out, Hester hit a curveball from John Lambert for a solo home run. The Cosmos, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Stratford manager George Brandt.
