The Stopper Libby hurler Steve Loveless shows Coach Lee Gehring the grip he used to retire Kalispell with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth to win game 6 of the State American Legion Baseball Tournament for the home town club. Loveless staged a magnificent performance under pressure as he came on in relief in the fourth inning to put out the fire and preserve Libby's winning margin.
