Mel Parnell had a complete game as the Bristol Blasters came back to win one
over Iowa MoonlightGraham, 5 to 4.

Bristol came through with the game-winning runs in the 9th inning with 3 runs
on 2 hits.  Milt Smith opened up the inning nicely when he smacked a single.
Smith swiped second base.  Joe Garagiola then drew a walk.  Lloyd Merriman
was up next and he doubled knocking in a run.  One out later, Phil Rizzuto
was next to bat, but he was a strikeout victim.  Vic Wertz did his part to
keep things going and drew a walk to load the bases.  Gil Hodges was next and
he drew a walk plating one more runner.  Sherry Robertson then drew a walk
making Bristol victorious to the delight of the the home town crowd.  Bristol
had a total of 9 hits for the game.  

Parnell(9-8) lasted until the end allowing 4 runs for the win. Mike
Garcia(2-3) was hit with the loss in relief.  Bristol knocked him around a
bit, as he gave up 3 runs in 2 and 1/3 innings.  

'We just wouldn't give up,' Merriman said. 'Much of the credit goes to our
fans - they were with us the whole way.'
