Keystones Down Gothams, 4-2
The Philadelphia Keystones had to overcome a fine effort from New York pitcher Hal Hackney to win, 4-2, at Gotham Stadium. Hackney went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. The win takes Philadelphia to 4-5.

Philadelphia used a timely hit from 30-year old third baseman Rudy Minton to get the win. The third baseman delivered a run-scoring triple in the top of the 12th inning to put the Keystones on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was huge.

"This kind of win will certainly make our fans happy," Minton told the Philadelphia Citizen.
