The Washington Eagles electrified the crowd with a walk-off win.

The Washington Eagles defeated the San Diego Captains by the score of 4-3, with the biggest share of the credit going to right fielder John Stites. Stites was 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs for the Eagles on the day. The Washington winning streak has reached 6 games.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Stites hit a sinker from Ed Payne for a run-scoring double. The Eagles, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This wasn't a good win," said Stites. "It was a great win."
