Centurions Top Portland, 9-8
The 9-8 Dallas win over Portland was due in large part to Heinie Billings. The Centurions right fielder was 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk, while scoring 2 runs. Howie Edwards notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3 innings. His record now sits at 3-0. The Green Sox drop to 4-6 and continue their inconsistent start to the 1949 season.

Had it not been for Bud Miller, the results might have been different. In the bottom of the eighth inning, when the Centurions were trailing 4-3, Miller hit a 2-run single for Dallas, giving his team the lead.

"Nothing is scripted in this game," said Billings.
