| Robbins Goes Deep Twice in 7-3 Eagles Win | The Washington Eagles defeated the Boston Minutemen by the score of 7-3, with the biggest share of the credit going to third baseman Clyde Robbins. Robbins went 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice for the Eagles on the day. The winning pitcher was former first round draft pick Eddie Yandow. He tossed 107 pitches over 7 innings, allowing 1 run on 8 hits. After today's action, Washington sits at 65-84; Boston slips to 55-92.
The Eagles got a big at-bat from center fielder Don Whited. For the game, Whited went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the fifth, with a runner on 3rd, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 13th home run of the season gave Washington a 2-1 lead.
"Trying isn't good enough in this league," said Whited. "You've got to get results." | |
