Los Angeles Makes It 6 Straight with 8-6 Win
The Los Angeles Angels relied on the hitting of left fielder Wally Berger to stop the Oakland Oaks, 8-6. For the game, Berger was 4 for 5 with 2 home runs and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. Ralph Buxton, the winner, goes to 17-12. He allowed 6 runs on 9 hits, with 4 walks and 3 strikeouts over 9 innings. Los Angeles has a 6-game win streak, while Oakland has lost 7 in a row.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Berger hit a fastball from Cotton Pippen for a 2-run home run. The Angels, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"We've hit a rough patch right now," said Oakland skipper Brandon Dudley.
