The Mick drove in Bill Robinson ,who doubled,in the top of the first and the Bronx Bombers never looked back.  Ellie Howard did the honors in the 3rd after Bill Robby’s second two bagger.  Ellie picked up another Robby in the 7th driving home, who else?, Robinson!  And to cap it off a Bill launched a two run dinger in the 8th of Dick Lines to close out the scoring.   The Sens got their only run in the 3rd McMullen driving in Dick Nen.  Stottlemyre tossed 8 solid innings yo get the season off right while Pete Richert was done after 4.
