| Gothams Hand Washington 5-2 Loss | New York pitcher Harry Hayward had a large part in his team subduing the Washington Eagles, 5-2. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the right-hander. Hayward picked up the win for New York, going 6 innings. He gave up no runs on 2 hits. He now sports a record of 5-3. The win makes New York 33-35.
New York used a clutch at-bat from Joe Jones to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Gothams ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.
Jones attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight." | |
