Griffin Handcuffs Emeralds, Terriers Seize 3-2 Advantage in LCS
The Boston Terriers moved to within one game of the World Series today, downing the visiting Seattle Emeralds at Atlantic Avenue Grounds by a score of 6-1. Terriers right-hander Bob Griffin had a strong outing in which he threw 9 innings of 7-hit ball. The win gives the Terriers a 3-2 advantage in the best-of-7 League Championship Series.

Griffin delivered a quality start for Boston. The 6' 2" right-hander allowed 1 earned run on 7 hits over 9 innings of work.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Griffin.

Game 6 is scheduled for Tuesday at Puget Field. The scheduled starters for the game are Harry Vickers for Boston and Jose Juarez for Seattle.
