Rickward Blasts Oilers, Athletics Take Game 4, 5-3
The Cleveland Athletics and the Pittsburgh Oilers will take the Round 1 to a decisive 5th game. In a must-win situation today, the Athletics beat the Oilers 5-3 at Bozeman Municipal Park to force the series into what will essentially be a one-game playoff. Cleveland center fielder Hyman Rickward was 2-4 with a home run. He scored 3 times and drove in 2.

The Athletics took a 5-2 lead in the bottom of the fifth inning. Facing Pittsburgh hurler Frederic Hayter with one out, Rickward hit a 2-run home run.

"We're happy," Rickward told reporters after the win. "When you're in the playoffs, you've got to treat every game like it could be your last."

Game 5 is scheduled for Tuesday at Oilers Ballpark in Pittsburgh.
