Miners Fall, 9-5, to Whaley, Eagles
The Washington Eagles powered past the Pittsburgh Miners, 9-5, at Fitzpatrick Park. George Whaley provided some of the pop. He was 4-5 with a home run and 2 triples. He scored 3 times and drove in 4. Otto Caudill earned the save, his 6th in 10 tries. The win boosted Washington to 62-38.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Al Clark? The Washington center fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Eagles on top, 6-3. For the game, Clark had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It was a solid team effort," Whaley said. "That's usually what it takes to win."
