The Washington Eagles faced a tough opponent in New York pitcher Bunny Mullins, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Gotham Stadium by a final score of 5-4. Mullins went 9 innings and allowed 5 runs. New York has now lost 4 in a row.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Virgil Belisle? The Washington third baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Eagles on top, 3-0. For the game, Belisle had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Washington manager Joe D'Aprile.
