With 8-4 Win, Seals Go to 63-43
Good production from shortstop Arky Vaughan helped the San Francisco Seals topple the Hollywood Stars, 8-4. Vaughan went 4 for 5 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles for the Seals. The win elevated the Seals to 63-43.

The game was at a stalemate until right fielder George Mandish came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Hollywood pitcher Johnny Bittner, he hit a 1-1 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting San Francisco on top, 5-4.

"I like our moxie," said Seals manager Mark Velez.
