No one was more impactful than Hilly Westbrook in the 17-7 Washington win over New York. Westbrook, who is tied for 8th in the FA in bases on balls with 60, was 1 for 2 with 3 walks. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Picking up the win was Wally Phillips. He went 6.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 11 hits. The right--hander struck out 4 and walked 1. Today's win puts Washington at 61-46, while New York falls to 43-61.

The Eagles got a big hit from catcher Del Gaines. Facing New York pitcher Bill Howard in the bottom of the sixth, Gaines pounded a grand slam home run to right. His 5th home run of the season put the Eagles ahead, 9-2.

Gaines said afterward that the win gets the team one step closer to its goal.
