| Big Day for Petty in 9-1 Kings Win | The Brooklyn Kings topped the Toronto Wolves by the score of 9-1, with the largest share of the credit going to first baseman Pat Petty. Petty went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 5 for the Kings. Leo Hayden, the winner, improved to 10-8. He held the Wolves to 1 run on 1 hit over 9 innings, while striking out 6 and walking 0. The slumping Wolves have lost 10 straight.
With Brooklyn leading 5-1 in the bottom of the eighth, Petty came up to bat against Toronto pitcher Chick Wirtz. Petty hit a fastball to right for a grand slam home run. His 6th home run of the season put the Kings on top, 9-1.
"The name of the game is scoring runs," Petty said. "We did a good job of that today."
