New York Rallies for 5-2 Victory
Detroit got a terrific performance from pitcher John Jackson, but it wasn't enough to beat the New York Gothams. New York won the Thompson Field contest, 5-2. Jackson threw 7.1 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. New York currently is in 4th place in the Federal Association at 67-79.

New York used a timely hit from Frank Landrum to get the win. The pinch hitter stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Gothams ahead, 4-2. It might've been his only hit, but it did the trick.

"Anytime I can help the team, I feel good about it," said Landrum.
