Oakes 3-for-4, Leads Eagles to Win
A 3-RBI performance from catcher Howdy Oakes, who is tied for 10th in the FA in bases on balls with 22, led the Washington Eagles to a win over the Pittsburgh Miners, 8-7. The victory gives Washington a record of 32-17.

Washington used the timely hitting of Ed Holt to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Eagles on top, 8-7. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"I like the vibe in the clubhouse after a win," said Holt. "It sure beats the alternative."
