Monarchs Suffer 5-4 Home Defeat
The Homestead Grays weathered an outstanding game by Kansas City third baseman Albert Pujols to topple the Monarchs, 5-4. Pujols went 3-4 with 2 doubles. He scored 2 times. The win elevated the Grays to 21-15.

Homestead used a well-timed hit by Roberto Clemente to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Grays ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"We squandered some opportunities," said Kansas City manager Daniel Makonnen.
