Gould Silences Twin Cities Bats
In a low-scoring tilt between the Dallas Wranglers and the Twin Cities Northmen, Vern Gould, who led the NBL in ERA with 2.13 in 1962, was the difference-maker. The Dallas right-hander spearheaded the 3-1 win. The loss lowers the Twin Cities record to 1-4.

The Northmen had trouble solving Gould, who surrendered 1 run on 5 hits over 9 innings.

Gould called the win a testament to his team's "grit."
