Sicily pitcher Pippo Ammanati gave the Aurora all they could handle, but in the end, Iceland left Aurora Field with a win, 2-1. Ammanati allowed 2 runs on 8 hits over 8 innings. Iceland, now 4-12, is off to a slow start.

Bryan Cook, the 3rd overall pick in the 1952 draft, took Sicily hurler Pippo Ammanati deep in the bottom of the seventh. His solo home run put the Aurora on top, 2-1. In all, Cook had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"Nice to get this one," said Cook. "We've been scuffling."
