Griffin, Hawks Wallop Empires in Game 4 of LCS
At 37, Jim Griffin knows he may not have many playoff appearances left, so he was determined to make it memorable. Mission accomplished.

The Chicago Hawks left fielder hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 2 to help his club get past the New York Empires, 7-0, in Game 4 of the League Championship Series at Hyde Park Stadium today. With the win, Chicago moves into a 2-2 tie in the best-of-7 series.

In the top of the sixth, New York were in rally mode. The score was 3-0, Chicago, with one out and runners on 1st and 3rd. But on a full count pitch, Virgil Donovan popped out.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Hyde Park Stadium. The scheduled starters for the game are Gary Clarke for the New York Empires and Jose Saucedo for the the Chicago Hawks.
