| Gothams Beat Dynamos, 4-2 | Starting pitcher Jerry Decker was a major factor in the 4-2 New York Gothams triumph over the Detroit Dynamos. In 6 innings, Decker surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. Picking up the save was Steve Groves. He's now 12 for 13 in save chances.
Decker contributed a big hit, a bases-clearing double, for New York in the bottom of the fourth. With his team trailing 2-0, Decker took a sinker from Carl Potter and stroked the double to right-center. His 2nd double of the season allowed the Gothams to leap in front, 3-2.
"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said New York manager Bud Jameson.
The first-place Gothams have won 4 in a row.
