Eagles Chop Down Dynamos, 5-2
The Washington Eagles picked up a win at Thompson Field, knocking off the Detroit Dynamos, 5-2. Starting pitcher Jim Stewart was a big reason why. Stewart yielded 2 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 4, and struck out 4. His record improves to 12-7. Washington occupies third place in the Federal Association at 68-55.

Ralph Weatherbee dealt the Dynamos a blow in the top of the fifth. Batting with the bases loaded and Washington leading 2-0, Weatherbee hit a 1-1 fastball for a 2-run single.

"I had a good feeling about this game even before we took the field," Weatherbee, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1954 draft, told the Washington Herald. "I'm glad it wasn't just gas."
