Hawks Top Oakland, 7-6
The San Francisco Hawks beat the Oakland Grays, 7-6, in part because of third baseman Norman Houser. He was 1-1 with a home run. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The winner in relief was Robby Grand. The left-hander allowed 2 runs on 5 hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 2-2. With the win, the Hawks improved to 29-30.

Don Long was the walk-off hero for San Francisco. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Hawks left fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring double to send the teams home.

"I had some good swings out there," said Houser.
