Kauff Homers Twice in 8-7 Gothams Win
The 8-7 New York win over Homestead was due largely to Benny Kauff. The Gothams designated hitter was 4-5 with 2 home runs and 2 singles. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. The winner was Masahiro Tanaka, who threw 96 pitches over 6.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 1 run on 6 hits. With the victory, the Gothams record stands at 72-79.

Kauff got the Gothams off to a quick start. In the top of the first, with a runner on 2nd, he hit a run-scoring single.

"I keep on showing up every day and trying to put up good at-bats and find good pitches to hit," said Kauff.
