Steam Get First Home Win The Cincinnati Steam improved their record to 2-1 after a 3-1 win over the Anderson Servants on Sunday. The Steam rallied late to plate 2 runners in the eighth inning to secure the victory. In front of a crowd of about 450, fans saw the first win at Western Hills for Cincinnati this season. The game began strong behind pitcher Billy Kitchen (Indiana University/Miamisburg) who only allowed one hit through four innings and one base runner in three. Billy O’Conner (Indiana University/Cincinnati Elder) was on his toes the entire game throwing out Alex Hentz as he tried to steal second in the second. Kitchen remained in the game for five innings allowing only two hits and striking out one. Steve Brown (Xavier University/LaSalle) attempted to put the Steam on the board in the fifth but was thrown out at home after a grounder to the second-basemen. Robert Sabo (Kent State University/Middletown) replaced Kitchen and allowed one unearned run after hitting Rashard Graves with the bases loaded. Sabo ended the inning with a strikeout. Danny Rosenbaum (Indiana University/Loveland) received the win after pitching two scoreless innings in the seventh and eighth and striking out one. In the eighth, Steve Brown (Xavier University/LaSalle) hit a single into left field scoring two runs. Chase Stewart (Miami University/Edgewood) finished the game by retiring three consecutive batters. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E Anderson 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 4 0 Cincinnati 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 x 3 6 1 WP—Rosenbaum (1-0) LP—Bara (0-1) Sv—Stewart (1) Hitting Leaders: Records: Cincinnati Steam 2-1 Anderson Servants 1-3
