Eagles Take Down Miners, 5-4
The Washington Eagles put one in the win column with an opening day 5-4 triumph over the Pittsburgh Miners. The crowd at Columbia Stadium watched Jesse Alvardo put on a fine performance.

Washington took a 5-4 lead on Bob Coon's 1st triple of the season. The run-scoring triple, which Coon hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Pittsburgh pitcher Art Brandon visibly frustrated.

Alvardo told a Washington News reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
