Eagles Earn Win with Late Rally
New York catcher Tom Brizzolara had a good game, even if his team did not. The Gothams dropped a 5-4 decision to Washington at Columbia Stadium. Brizzolara was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times. Washington reliever Otto Caudill picked up the win to move to 6-6. Jack White suffered the loss. The third-place Eagles have won 5 in a row.

Howdy Oakes, who is tied for 4th in the FA in doubles with 20, contributed to the Washington win with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the eighth. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 RBI.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Washington manager Roger Cleaves.
