Bulls Lose By a Run at Oakland, 3-2
In a low-scoring affair between the Oakland Grays and the Houston Bulls, pitcher Jack Goff was the difference between victory and defeat. The Oakland left-hander earned accolades in the 3-2 Grays win. In 9 innings, Goff surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. With the loss, Houston drops to 2-3.

The Grays got a big at-bat from shortstop Jack Bush. For the game, Bush went 1-3 with a double and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the second, with runners on 1st and 2nd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 1st double of the season gave Oakland a 2-0 lead.

"Bottom line," said Houston skipper Jerry Wilcher, "we didn't play well enough to win."
