Kings Come Up Short at San Francisco, 4-3
The San Francisco Sailors dealt the Kansas City Kings a 4-3 loss at Golden Gate Stadium. Heinie Spitler was the star on offense. He went 4 for 4 with a triple and 3 singles. He drove in 3 runs. The 4th-place Sailors sport a record of 46-35.

Had Spitler not come through in the bottom of the seventh, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Spitler hit a run-scoring single. The Sailors took the lead, 4-3, and never looked back.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Kansas City manager Glenn Carney. "The effort was great."
