Grays Earn 11-10 Win Versus Centurions
The Oakland Grays topped the Dallas Centurions by the score of 11-10, with the biggest share of the credit going to third baseman Spud Bent. Bent went 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while adding 6 RBI and scoring once for the Grays on the day. Oakland reliever Larry Brown picked up the win, raising his record to 4-0. Howie Edwards was tagged with the loss. With the win, Oakland pushed its record to 30-19.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 11th. With no one out, Bent hit a curveball from Howie Edwards for a solo home run. The Grays, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"It's great when the crowd is energized," Bent said.
