Green Sox Win Thriller, 8-7
The Portland Green Sox topped the Los Angeles Knights by the score of 8-7, with the biggest share of the credit going to shortstop Ernie Brown. Brown was 5-5 with 5 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Green Sox on the day. Portland is now 54-55, Los Angeles 51-58.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Brown hit a fastball from Karl Wallace for a run-scoring single. The Green Sox, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"We need to keep playing good baseball," Brown told the Portland Today.
