| Eagles Win, 7-2, at Boston | Starting pitcher Wally Phillips was a major factor in the 7-2 Washington Eagles triumph over the Boston Minutemen. Phillips got the win, improving to 4-7. He gave up 7 hits and walked 4 over 8.2 innings. He allowed 2 runs. With the win, Washington upped its record to 55-46.
Washington used the hitting of Jack Thompson to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Eagles on top, 5-0. For the game, Thompson had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"I don't lose sleep over a loss," said Thompson. "But I have better dreams after a win."
