| Gothams Get Plucky, 3-2 Win Over Eagles | The New York Gothams converted a terrific effort from starter Les Freedman into a win over the Washington Eagles at Gotham Stadium. The Gothams won the game by a final score of 3-2. Bill Howard got credit for the win, improving to 3-8. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings. The winning streak has now reached 4 games for the Gothams.
Joe Anderson was the walk-off hero for New York. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Gothams left fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.
"We take it day by day here," said Anderson, "and today was a good one for us."
