Knickerbockers Earn Late 6-5 Win
New York and Washington duked it out and the Knickerbockers came out victorious.

Despite a great performance by Washington shortstop Gary Long, the New York Knickerbockers defeated the Eagles by the score of 6-5 in 11 innings at Knickerbocker Stadium. Long went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 runs. New York is now 59-48. Washington is 41-65.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 11th inning, when New York pinch hitter Larry Fletcher, facing Miguel Jimenez, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Knickerbockers the 6-5 win.

"He who laughs last laughs best," Fletcher said, postgame.
