Grays Top Green Sox, 8-5
The Portland Green Sox got a superb performance from third baseman Jim Beard, but the Oakland Grays still won the game, 8-5. Beard was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. Danny Goff Jr., the winner, goes to 6-8. He allowed 5 runs on 12 hits, with 5 walks and 1 strikeout over 8 innings. Earning his 8th save of the year was Bill Douglass.

Jack Bush dealt the Green Sox a blow in the bottom of the third. Batting with the bases loaded and Oakland leading 3-0, Bush, who is tied for 8th in the GWL in triples with 3, hit a first pitch changeup for a 2-run single.

"We've got a great group of guys," Bush said, "and we're having fun right now."

The first-place Grays have a one-game lead in their division.
