Solomon – New Brighton, Pennsylvania Open Champ
Jimmy Solomon of Uniontown won the first major tournament of the 1964 Keystone State season in convincing fashion. Although the tournament was plagued with a constant drizzle, Jimmy was able to move through the competition without a loss. Oscar Engle of Dormont was runner-up, losing only to Solomon.
Sam
Sutton of Washington, probably the most improved pitcher in Pennsylvania,
dominated the Class B event with a comfortable 7-0 record and eight percentage
points above his nearest competitor, Relman Wilson, New Brighton.
The
New Brighton Club managed by Herman Boyer, Paul Smith, Earl Wright, and Burrell
Brobeck deserve a lot of credit for organizing and conducting this tournament
under such adverse weather conditions.
