Beavers Win, 10-5, at Oakland
The 10-5 Portland win over Oakland was due in large part to Gene Benson. The Beavers center fielder went 4 for 5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs. Now 3-7, the Oaks have not played well this season.

The game turned with no one out in the top of the fourth when Benson hit a run-scoring double. It propelled the Beavers into the lead, 2-1.

In postgame comments to the Portland Daily, Benson said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
