Knickerbockers Edge Eagles, 3-2
Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the New York Knickerbockers and Washington Eagles.

The New York Knickerbockers had to overcome a good performance from Washington pitcher Alex Fonseca to claim a 3-2 win at Knickerbocker Stadium. Fonseca went 7.1 innings and allowed 2 runs. Washington's current losing streak has reached 5 games.

Steve Wells was 1 for 3 with a walk for New York. The 30-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring walk off Ricky Grill. It was his 32nd walk of the season.

"Very pleased with the effort on our side," said Wells.
