Christ Church Sweeps Harvey Browne

Christ Church out-hit Harvey Browne 31 to 11 to earn a sweep of the final series of the year.

In Game One, after Christ Church fell behind 1-0 in the third inning, a two run fourth and a four run sixth gave Christ Church a 6-1 win.  In the fourth, a Charles Smith home run drove in Jerry Hinton (triple).  In the sixth, Jerry Hinton tripled and was driven in by David Stierle's single, and he and Frank Preston scored on Clete Thompson's home run.

Harvey Browne went hitless in Game Two and Christ Church won 5-0 with a run in the third (Mike Peak single, Bob Stone triple), a run in the fifth (Frank Preston double, John Frederick triple), a run in the seventh (Clete Thompson homered), and two runs in the eighth (Jerry Hinton triple, Mike Thompson single, David Stierle triple).

In Game Three, Christ Church scored two in the first when John Frederick scored on Mike Thompson's homer.  Christ Church added two in the second with Clete Thompson driving in Charles Smith with a home run.  Harvey Browne cut the lead in half with two runs in the third.  But in the eighth, Christ Church added three runs on consecutive home runs by Jerry Hinton, Mike Thompson and Dick Lutz.

Christ Church finished the season with a 32-37 record.
