| Sailors Deal Wolves 5-3 Defeat | The Philadelphia Sailors racked up a win at Dominion Stadium, bumping off the Toronto Wolves, 5-3. Al Duster, who started for Philadelphia, pitched effectively for his team. In 7 innings, Duster surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 5. He allowed 3 runs. Joe Hess closed the game out for Philadelphia, earning his 1st save.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Rip Lee? The Philadelphia shortstop had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Sailors on top, 3-0. For the game, Lee had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"We'll put that win in the can," said Lee, "and go after the next one."
The defeat makes Toronto 2-1.
