League Championship Series Game 1 Victory for Torre and New York
The League Championship Series got off to a quiet start today, with the host New York Knickerbockers taking a low-scoring 1-0 win over the Brooklyn Bluebirds. New York right-hander Dave Torre was marvelous at Knickerbocker Stadium. The Knickerbockers now hold a 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series.

In his 88-pitch effort, Torre allowed no runs on 1 hit over 7 innings. He walked 1 and struck out 4.

"It was a good day but I'm not letting my guard down," Torre said. "I'll let my guard down as soon as someone puts a big, fat championship ring on my finger."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Knickerbocker Stadium in New York.
