On Road, California Drops Bronx, 11-7
The California Seals beat the Bronx Bombers by a score of 11-7. California center fielder Cleon Jones deserved the lion's share of the credit. Jones was 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Seals. The Seals now have a record of 60-67.

Jim Lefebvre provided a timely hit. The California pinch hitter delivered a bases-clearing triple in the top of the sixth inning to put the Seals on top, 9-6. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"Feels good to get the job done," Jones said after the game.
