League Championship Series Game 1 Victory for Young and Cleveland
The Cleveland Bobcats started the League Championship Series in style today, downing the visiting Chicago Traders at Lakefront Stadium by a score of 7-1 to stake an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Bobcats left-hander Don Young threw 9 innings of 3-hit ball.

Young pitched a complete game for Cleveland. The 26-year-old left-hander was charged with 1 run on 3 hits. He struck out 3 during his 101-pitch performance.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Young told the Cleveland Today. "It's as simple as that."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow in Cleveland. The scheduled starters for the game are Ben McHargue for Chicago and Don Young for Cleveland.
