Gray Blasts Stars, Bears Take Game 3, 8-6
With pinch hitter Lem Gray leading the charge, the Memphis Bears got a road win over the Kansas City Stars, 8-6, in Game 3 of the League Championship Series today. Gray was 1 for 1 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once at Stars Stadium to help Memphis take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-7 series.

Memphis needed the clutch hitting of Eli Handy to notch the win. The third baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Bears on top, 8-6. For the game, Handy had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Handy. "And not try to do too much."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Stars Stadium in Kansas City.
