Keystones Score Late, Top Eagles, 4-2 | Philadelphia Keystones starter William Davis pitched well against the Washington Eagles at Columbia Stadium, leading his team to a win, 4-2. Davis picked up the win for Philadelphia, going 8 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 1-1. Charlie Rushing recorded the save, his 1st.
Philadelphia used the timely hitting of Buddy Miller to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Keystones on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.
Miller attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
The Eagles drop to 6-6 and continue their inconsistent start to the 1963 season. | |
