| Eagles Edge Past Dynamos, 4-3 | Washington Eagles starter Bob Ball pitched a strong game against the Detroit Dynamos at Thompson Field, leading the Eagles to victory, 4-3. Washington has run its win streak to 4 in a row.
Washington used the timely hitting of Dick Rabkin to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Eagles on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.
"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Washington manager Roger Cleaves.
