Solons Stumble, Lose to Seals
The San Francisco Seals racked up a win at Moreing Park, bumping off the Sacramento Solons, 8-3. Lefty Gomez, who started for San Francisco, pitched effectively for his team. Gomez, now 15-10, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 4, walking 7, and allowing 3 runs. The first-place Seals have a one-game lead in their division.

Buck O'Neil, the 28-year old first baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. O'Neil contributed a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put San Francisco up, 3-0.

O'Neil said the win provided a "big morale boost" for the team. "There's a good feeling in the clubhouse right now."
