Royal Giants Win Squeaker, 7-6, Over Grays
The Homestead Grays got a superb performance from third baseman Chris Sabo, but the Brooklyn Royal Giants still won the game, 7-6. Sabo went 2-3 with 2 home runs and a walk. The win belonged to Fernando Valenzuela in relief. His record improves to 3-0. Josh Lindblom took the loss for Homestead. With the win, the Royal Giants sit at 27-20.

The game was decided with one out in the bottom of the ninth. With Brooklyn trailing 6-5, Mike Piazza hit a cutter from Josh Lindblom to right-center for a 2-run single. Just like that, the Royal Giants had a walk-off win.

Piazza told a Brooklyn Herald reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
