The Minnesota Loons ended a long winless drought and had an easy time of it at
Memorial Stadium defeating the Savannah Rumrunners by a score of 6 to 1.

In the 3rd inning Minnesota went on top for good as they scored 2 runs on 2
base hits.  That was all the offense they were to need.  Minnesota had 8 hits
for the afternoon.  

Bennie Daniels(3-3) went 6 innings allowing 1 run for the win. Johnny
Podres(3-4) suffered the loss.  He allowed 5 runs and 4 hits in 5 innings.

'Ahhh, that victory was surely needed.  Man alive, things were getting awfully
grim,' noted Minnesota's manager.  'Now, we need to string a bunch of wins
together and turn things around!'
