...Crimson took the lead in the last of the first on Tom Bergantino's homer to right, but the Indians tied it in the next frame when Dom Repetto walked in a run. Repetto got the lead back in the last half with a deep, two-run triple to left, but then was caught off base...

Another Elizabethan, Thomas ("Bad money drives out good'') Gresham. seems to have suggested a text for Faulkner...
