1951 Baseball Tour of America - Pacific Coast League #3

Hooray for Hollywood!  Our next stop is glamorous Hollywood where the stars of the silver screen and the newly emerging medium of television come out to the ballpark to watch a game. Who knows - maybe Bogie and Bacall are in the stands today. Or maybe a future actor is playing first base for the crosstown Los Angeles Angels.

The Stars take a 2-1 lead in the second and the Angels just couldn't catch up to them.

This was a close one throughout as the Stars never lead by more than two runs.

Hollywood Stars      8 (12)


The Stars tie the game at eight a piece with a two run rally in the bottom of the ninth, but the Angels pick up the game winning run in the twelfth to avoid the sweep.
