Gothams Knock Off Minneapolis, 6-3
New York and Minneapolis took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

John Herzog propelled his team to victory over the Minneapolis Millers. The final score was 6-3, New York. Herzog picked up the win for New York, going 5 innings. He gave up no runs on 3 hits. He now sports a record of 4-3.

New York won the game in part because of Isaiah Redbird. The shortstop ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Gothams ahead, 3-0. For the game, Redbird had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"John was exceptional and he pitched with a purpose," said New York manager Harry Davis.

The Gothams go to 32-52, putting them 8th in the Federal Association.
