Farmer Powers Sailors Offense
A good performance from second baseman Al Farmer helped the San Francisco Sailors defeat the Kansas City Kings, 13-5. Farmer went 3 for 4 with a double, 2 singles, and 2 walks. He scored 4 runs and drove in 2 for the Sailors. The winning pitcher was Lloyd Stevens. His record now stands at 4-4. The right-hander went 6.2 innings, allowing 4 runs on 5 hits for the Sailors. The Sailors now own a record of 29-24.

Bill Guthrie had a big 3-run home run for the Sailors in the top of the eighth inning. With San Francisco leading 7-4 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a cutter from George Fitzmorris, who finished 5th in the CA in saves with 12 in 1951, and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the Sailors on top, 10-4.

"We think we're a good team overall, so we're not too surprised to win today," said Farmer.
