At Gotham Stadium, the Washington Eagles and New York Gothams were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

New York picked up a win at Gotham Stadium, bumping off the Washington Eagles, 5-3. Pitcher Curtis Robinson was a major reason the Gothams emerged victorious. In 8.2 innings, Robinson surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 2. He allowed 3 runs. Johnnie Laufenberg earned the save for New York, his 2nd of the year.

In the bottom of the third inning, shortstop Jon Horton had a 2-run double for New York. It was his 8th double of the season and put the Gothams on top, 3-1.

"That was awesome. Really, really impressive, what Curtis did," said New York manager Charlie Foley.

After today's action, New York sits at 83-63, while Washington falls to 72-76.
