Eagles Triumphant, 11-3, at Hennepin County Stadium
Alex Wilson impressed in the 11-3 Washington win over Minneapolis. Wilson, who leads the FA in RBI with 20, went 3-5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The Millers, now 1-20, continue their slow start.

Washington used the hitting of Tom Lorang to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Eagles on top, 3-0. For the game, Lorang had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

Said losing manager Frank Vance: "These are the grinding hard days that all good teams go through, and this is when we've got to stick together and believe in one another."
