Abstract
We reduce the dominant term in Lehman's theorem. This improved estimate allows us to refine the main theorem of Bays & Hudson. Entering 2,000,000 Riemann zeros, we prove that there exists x in the interval [1.39792101 \times 10^316, 1.39847603 \times 10^316] for which \pi(x) > \li(x). This interval is strictly a sub-interval of the interval in Bays & Hudson [1], and is narrower by a factor of about 10.
