Black Sox Need Extra Innings to Top Royal Giants, 7-4
Gavy Cravath led Baltimore to a win over Brooklyn. The final score was 7-4. The designated hitter collected 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. Baltimore reliever Justin Hampson was the winner. His record is now 1-1. Frank Knauss took the loss. Buddy Groom earned the save for Baltimore, his 4th of the year.

Cravath had a game-changing double in the top of the tenth. On a 1-1 fastball from Frank Knauss, he banged a bases-clearing double to left-center, giving the Black Sox a 7-4 lead. It was the 6th double of the year for Cravath.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Cravath told the Baltimore Gazette.

The victory makes Baltimore 7-12.
