Homestead picked up a win at Wrigley Field, bumping off the Wandering House of David, 5-4. Pitcher Bob Friend was a major reason the Grays emerged victorious. With the victory, the Grays upped their record to 44-39.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Mike Epstein came to bat in the top of the eighth. Facing Wandering pitcher Rick Reuschel, he hit a 3-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Homestead on top, 5-4.

"Bob giving us the start that he did was huge," said Homestead manager Daniel Makonnen.
