Rube Foster pitched well, but his team, the Indianapolis ABCs, still dropped a 2-1 decision to the Homestead Grays at Forbes Field. Rick Ownbey, credited with the win, is now 2-0. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1 innings. The win has Homestead at 12-9.

Josh Gibson was the walk-off hero for Homestead. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Grays catcher hit a dramatic run-scoring double to send the teams home.

"Some games build character," said Homestead manager Daniel Makonnen. "Like this one."
