It required a bit more time,
but the Senators reached their
customary conclusion with the
Tigers last night at Griffith

the 10th inning to defeat Wash

time in as many games this
season that the same ending has
been achieved.
Steve Gromek, So year : old
Highlander who is serving his
10th season in the majors, went
the distance for the Tigers. He
restricted the Senators to six
hits while posting his fourth
triumph.
There was a flicker of hope
among the 3,016 faithful when
Roy Sievers crashed his 18th
homer into the new leftfleld
seats in the eighth inning with
one aboard to tie the score at

Gromek sacrificed, much to

the Senators and pitched a cred

Griggs allowed only four hits
