WEB GEMS- Bot 4th: Nellie Fox robbed Jim Landis of a base hit.

Center fielder Vada Pinson hit 2 doubles at Memorial Coliseum as the Savannah
Rumrunners beat the Colorado 14ers by the count of 7 to 4.

Savannah drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning
when they tallied 2 runs on 3 hits.  Savannah managed 12 hits in their
victory.  

The win went to Johnny Podres(2-0) who allowed 4 runs in 5 innings. Tom
Sturdivant(1-2) was the loser.  He was knocked around pretty good, giving up
6 runs in 4 innings.  

Savannah's manager was just happy to get a win, 'We've had such a bad streak
of games -- boy, it's great to get the monkey off our back.  Now maybe we can
relax a little and play the kind of baseball of which we are capable.'
