Keystones Win at Boston, 9-3
Keystones right fielder Joe Landry left his mark on his team's 9-3 win over the Boston Minutemen. Landry was 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 3 runs for Philadelphia in the contest. Joe Downing, who finished 2nd in the CA in ERA with 2.45 in 1969, was the winning pitcher. Over 6 innings, he allowed 1 run on 5 hits, with 2 walks and 4 strikeouts. The victory makes Philadelphia 2-2.

The Minutemen had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Keystones going into the top of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the two-time All-Star Joe Downing came to the plate. Downing hit a bases-clearing double on a 2-1 curveball from Boston hurler Harry Draper. It was Downing's 1st double of the year.

"We take it day by day here," said Downing, "and today was a good one for us."
