The "classic": The Lions take on the Gladiators. Only this time, it's nowhere near as gruesome! The big guys with the swords won 3 of the 5 games, but one of the "Mane" Attractions was a 1-hitter by East Kenosha's Pat Dobson. The only hit was a 5th inning single by Eddie Kranepool, and the only walk Dobson issued (to Johnny Bench) was erased on a GDP by Joe Torre. In 8 starts, Dobson has given up 7 runs, 5 earned - and is 5-1. Rookie George Hendrick made his SPB2 debut, going 5-for-15 with a HR and 6 Runs batted in of the 16 that the Lions scored in this series. The Lions are now 9-8 at home, and 9-8 on the road. After each game, the East Kenosha fans all crowded into "Emily's Enclave" off the 3B dugout to get Willie Mays' autograph. 5/4/1972, GLA72-EKL72, County Stadium 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E LOB DP 1972 Gladiators 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1972 Lions 0 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 x 3 6 0 6 1 Gladiators AB R H BI AVG Lions AB R H BI AVG Garr cf 4 0 0 0 .280 Grabarkewitz 2b 4 2 2 3 .250 Millan,F 2b 3 0 0 0 .263 Cruz lf 4 0 1 0 .275 Scheinblum lf 3 0 0 0 .360 Rodriguez,A 3b 4 0 1 0 .291 Bench c 2 0 0 0 .274 Chambliss 1b 2 0 0 0 .299 Torre 3b 3 0 0 0 .306 Bell,B rf 4 0 1 0 .239 Kranepool 1b 3 0 1 0 .207 Hendrick cf 3 0 0 0 .385 Robinson,F rf 3 0 0 0 .262 Torborg c 3 0 0 0 .250 Harrelson ss 2 0 0 0 .214 Yeager c 0 0 0 0 .375 Mays,W ph 1 0 0 0 .245 Patek ss 2 1 1 0 .154 Seaver p 1 0 0 0 .118 Wills ss 0 0 0 0 .063 Taylor,Ca ph 1 0 0 0 .188 Dobson p 3 0 0 0 .045 Frisella p 0 0 0 0 .000 29 3 6 3 Carty ph 1 0 0 0 .277 27 0 1 0 Gladiators INN H R ER BB K PCH STR ERA Seaver L 5-2 5.0 6 3 3 3 3 88 55 1.67 Frisella 3.0 0 0 0 1 4 46 32 2.77 8.0 6 3 3 4 7 134 87 Lions INN H R ER BB K PCH STR ERA Dobson W 5-1 9.0 1 0 0 1 4 93 63 0.73 9.0 1 0 0 1 4 93 63 GLA: Taylor,Ca batted for Seaver in the 6th Mays,W batted for Harrelson in the 9th Carty batted for Frisella in the 9th EKL: Yeager inserted at c in the 7th Wills inserted at ss in the 7th E-Bench.
