New York Rallies to 8-6 Win
The New York Gothams weathered a fine game by Washington right fielder Jack Thompson to upend the Eagles, 8-6, at Gotham Stadium. Thompson slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. The 5th-place Gothams now have a record of 41-54.

The game came to a dramatic end in the bottom of the ninth. With New York trailing 6-5, Otto Pilkerton hit a fastball from Carl Levy for a 3-run home run. It was the knockout punch the Gothams needed.

"The crowd went wild," Pilkerton said.
