The winner was Stallings. He threw 6.0 innings allowing 1 run. The loser was Les Bradshaw. The Gothams, at 36-33, sit in 5th place in the Federal Association.

Hank Estill, who led the FA in home runs with 41 in 1952, contributed to the New York win with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"I just tried to focus on getting that first guy out every inning," said Stallings.
