Eagles Drop Gothams, 7-1
Washington Eagles pitcher Otto Caudill was in top form, leading his team past the New York Gothams, 7-1. The Eagles, at 72-56, sit in third place in the Federal Association.

It could have been a different outcome for Washington, had it not been for Ralph Weatherbee, the 25-year old first baseman . Weatherbee contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the third inning to put Washington up, 3-1.

"Whenever we hold the other team to one run," said Eagles manager Roger Cleaves, "I like our chances."
