Bob Gibson racked up an impressive total of 12 strikeouts as the Verona Ridge
Roadrunners defeated the Hoboken Hobos 4 to 1 at The Hobo-Dome.
 
Gibson(2-0) looked very much in control throughout the night.  He allowed only
6 hits and 4 walks in 9 innings lowering his ERA to 1.93.  Verona Ridge
finished with 9 hits in the victory.  
 
Tom Seaver(0-1) suffered the loss. Gibson, when asked about his 12 strikeout
performance noted, 'The important thing is that we won, if I get 20 and we
lose, what good does it do our team? But, on the other hand, since we won it
feels great!'
