Northmen Win 4-3 Walk-Off
The Twin Cities Northmen electrified the home crowd with a walk-off win.

The Twin Cities Northmen picked up a win at Twin Cities Stadium, knocking off the Los Angeles Pobladores, 4-3, in 11 innings. Starting pitcher Charlie Sokol played a key role in the triumph. The Pobladores fall to 11-18 and continue their unimpressive start to the 1972 season.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 11th inning, when Twin Cities pinch hitter Frank Kane, facing Whistlestop Meadows, had a run-scoring ground out. It gave the Northmen the 4-3 win.

"Our goal is to improve each and every day," Kane told the Twin Cities Chronicle.
