Grays Losing Streak at 6 After Extra-Inning Loss to Gothams
The New York Gothams and Homestead Grays completed their game despite the rain.

Behind the hitting of Will Clark, the New York Gothams stopped the Homestead Grays, 5-4, in 10 innings. Clark was 3 for 5 with a double and 2 singles for the Gothams. New York pitcher Kent Tekulve got the win, upping his record to 2-0. Josh Lindblom got the loss.

The decisive blow was delivered by Larry Doyle in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a 2-run home run off 31-year old right-handed pitcher Josh Lindblom to win the game for New York. The home crowd went nuts.

"The name on the front of this uniform is all that matters to me," Clark told the New York Chronicle. "And padding the New York win column."

With their winning streak at 4, the Gothams have raced to a strong start this season.
