Big Day for Johnson as Emeralds Down Volcanoes, 6-1
The Eugene Emeralds converted a terrific effort from starter Walt Johnson into a win over the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes at Volcanoes Stadium. The Emeralds won the game by a final score of 6-1. Johnson picked up the win for Eugene, going 8.2 innings. He gave up 1 run on 7 hits. He now sports a record of 5-0. The Emeralds now own a record of 31-25.

Eugene used a well-timed hit by Håkon Ulvin to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Emeralds ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"Walt set the tone," said Mike Benjamin, the Emeralds manager.
