Gibson Shines in 11-4 Homestead Win
Josh Gibson was instrumental in his team's 11-4 triumph over the Houston Colt 45s. The catcher went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 4 for the Homestead Grays. Homestead pitcher Billy Pierce earned the win, hiking his record to 10-10. Stephen Strasburg suffered the loss. Homestead is 73-82 and Houston, with the loss, 81-74.

Rick Reichardt was 1-5. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for Homestead. The 24-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the third. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a 2-run single off Stephen Strasburg. It was his 125th hit of the season.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Daniel Makonnen said.
