Eagles Pull Out Late-Game Win, 4-3
The Washington Eagles did just enough to sneak past the Atlanta Copperheads, 4-3, at Columbia Stadium. Washington pitcher Bill Kelly, in particular, had a standout performance. Washington pitcher Don Eddy got the win. He's now 1-4. Buddy Thomas was tagged with the loss. Washington is now 73-79.

In the bottom of the ninth, with two out and the game tied, 3-3, 32-year old left fielder Joe Cantrell won it for Washington. With a runner on 3rd, Cantrell hit a 0-1 fastball from Ike Abraham for a run-scoring single, giving his team the 4-3 win.

"Bill was dictating to their hitters," said Washington manager Joe D'Aprile.
