New York Topples St. Louis, 6-2
New York beat St. Louis on the strength of starting pitcher Ed Bowman's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 6-2. In 9 innings, Bowman surrendered 9 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. The win makes New York 55-52.

Chief Lewis drew 1 walk for New York. The 28-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring walk off Joe Potts. It was his 62nd walk of the season.

"Ed did a heck of a job," said New York manager Ad Doria.
