Dave Boswell cracked his second round tripper to give himself the lead in this game only to have former teammate Jimmie Hall go yard on him the next inning providing George Brunet the slimmest of margins, a lead he did not relinquish with the aid of Minnie Rojas as the Cherubs take the series opener at the Big A.
