Dynamos Stumble, Lose to Keystones
The Philadelphia Keystones downed the Detroit Dynamos, 9-3. The hitting star was catcher Dick Christian. Christian went 1 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 3 and driving in 2 for the Keystones. The 4th-place Keystones have won 4 straight games.

Buddy Miller had a big 2-run home run for the Keystones in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Philadelphia leading 3-1 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a fastball from 22-year old left-handed pitcher Dave Irwin and punished it. The result was his 18th home run of the season, which put the Keystones on top, 5-1.

"I like the roll we're on," said Philadelphia manager Don Fox.
