| Boston Upended, 4-0, by Washington | The Washington Eagles downed the Boston Minutemen, 4-0, at Minuteman Stadium. Stellar pitching by Buck Guthrie had a lot to do with it. The left-hander handcuffed his opponent all game. Roy McDonald picked up his 1st save of the season. With the win, Washington boosts its record to 3-4.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Tom Lorang? The Washington third baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put the Eagles on top, 1-0. For the game, Lorang had 1 double and 1 single in 3 at-bats.
"Makes our job easier," said Lorang, "when our pitchers shut the opposition down."
