Grays Drop Royal Giants, 7-5, with Late Score
The Homestead Grays topped the Brooklyn Royal Giants, 7-5, at Ebbets Field. Homestead left fielder Rick Reichardt was a spark plug for the offense. He was 2-4 with a home run and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The defeat makes Brooklyn 16-14.

The result might have been different, had it not been for 29-year old third baseman Chris Sabo. Sabo had a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Grays ahead, 4-3. For the game, Sabo had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Sabo.
