Clippers Rally to Win
Led by Amos Johnson, the Baltimore Clippers defeated the Washington Eagles, 9-7, in 10 innings. Johnson was 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Clippers. Picking up his 5th save was 27-year old right-handed pitcher Charlie Platt. After today's action, Baltimore sits at 76-79, while Washington falls to 75-82.

Baltimore used the timely hitting of Joe Tucker to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Clippers on top, 8-7. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"Baseball is such a beautiful game," said Tucker. "Anything can happen on any night, and that's why you don't dwell on what happened yesterday. Just look forward and trust you're going to have positive results."
