Emeralds Lose Big to Hawks, 11-2
The Chicago Hawks beat the Seattle Emeralds, 11-2, at Puget Field. The win was due in part to catcher Don Bozza, who was 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3. Kevin Edwards, the winner, improved to 5-5. He held the Emeralds to 2 runs on 5 hits over 8 innings, while striking out 2 and walking 2. The Emeralds, now 30-42, have lost 5 in a row.

Chicago used the hitting of Ernie Ronnebaum to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Hawks on top, 6-2. For the game, Ronnebaum had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Ronnebaum.
