Grays Top Seattle, 4-3
A 4-RBI performance from Joe Loyd, who finished 3rd in the GWL in RBI with 75 last year, helped the Oakland Grays beat the Seattle Thunderbirds, 4-3. The triumph puts Oakland at 49-30 for the season.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With two out, Loyd hit a forkball from Oliver Allen for a run-scoring single. The Grays, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Our guys refused to lose," said Loyd.
