Lolich Nearly Perfect As He No Hits Mechanicsburg!
Lolich Nearly Perfect As He No Hits Mechanicsburg!
The big story this month is Mickey Lolich's NEAR PERFECT GAME against Mechanicsburg! Only an 8th inning boot of a Reggie Smith grounder by usually sure handed Don Kessinger stood between the portly portsider and immortality. Not that settling for the first no-hitter in Ridgewood history is a bad consolation, but it sort of tells the story of the Reds in this slow starting season - close, but no cigar!
