Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Philadelphia Quakers and Washington Eagles.

The Philadelphia Quakers rode a solid performance from 28-year-old starting pitcher Tom Reid to a win, beating the Washington Eagles, 4-2, at Quakers Stadium. Bill Smith collected his 14th save.

Reid broke a deadlock in the bottom of the sixth inning, when he reached on an error by the 3B, driving in 1 run, putting Philadelphia up, 3-2.

"Tom just went about his business, throwing strikes," said Philadelphia manager Jeff Green.

The Quakers lead the National Baseball League Eastern Division by 5½ games.
