Royal Giants Fall, 8-4, to Stargell, Grays
The Homestead Grays used the hitting of designated hitter Willie Stargell to subdue the Brooklyn Royal Giants, 8-4. For the game, Stargell was 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. Homestead goes to 6-9.

Josh Gibson had a big run-scoring double for the Grays in the bottom of the third inning. With Homestead leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a slider from 24-year old right-handed pitcher Smokey Joe Williams and swatted a double to left. It was his 4th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Grays ahead, 2-0.

Said Brooklyn manager Daniel Makonnen: "They did a lot of things right. We did a lot of things wrong."
