Spirited fans greeted the Oakland Grays for their clash with the San Francisco Hawks.

Don Long helped his team muscle past the Oakland Grays, 10-5. In the game, the San Francisco left fielder was 4 for 5 with 4 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. With the win, San Francisco upped its record to 50-50.

Orlin Yates, the 37-year old center fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Yates contributed a 2-run single in the top of the fifth inning to put San Francisco up, 5-2.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said San Francisco manager Billy Rose.
