New York Beats Homestead, 7-5
The New York Gothams weathered an outstanding game by Homestead designated hitter Willie Stargell to topple the Grays, 7-5. Stargell went 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. New York goes to 2-2.

Willie Mays was 1 for 3 with a walk for New York. The 23-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the seventh. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Dave Giusti. It was his 1st RBI of the season.

"Trying isn't good enough in this league," said Mays. "You've got to get results."
