Road Win Lifts New York to 2-1 Lead in World Series
Wes Lee pitched a gem to help the New York Knickerbockers escape with a tight 2-1 victory over the Chicago Traders in a low-scoring World Series contest today. The right-handed Lee threw 9 innings of 5-hit ball in the win, just enough for the Knickerbockers on a day when their offense dried up. New York now leads the best-of-7 series 2-1.

Lee pitched a complete game for New York. The 34-year-old right-hander was charged with 1 run on 5 hits. He struck out 3 during his 112-pitch performance.

"My job is to go out and play as hard as I can for the Knickerbockers," said Lee.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow. The scheduled starters for the game are Charlie Schmidt for the New York Knickerbockers and Moose Austin for the the Chicago Traders.
