| Grays Deal Thunderbirds 5-4 Defeat | The Oakland Grays beat the Seattle Thunderbirds, 5-4, in part because of catcher Joe Loyd. He went 1-2 with a home run, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Harry Frenette, the winning pitcher, is now 8-6. He went 7 innings, allowing 4 runs on 8 hits, while fanning 4 and walking 0. Bill Douglass notched his 9th save in 10 chances.
Ed Greenwood, the 33-year old first baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Greenwood contributed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put Oakland up, 5-2.
"I like our moxie," said Grays manager Bill Hunter.
Oakland is now riding a 3-game win streak.
