The Washington Eagles extended their winning streak.

The Washington Eagles defeated the New York Knickerbockers, 8-2, in part because of right fielder John Stites. Stites went 3-5 with 2 home runs, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice for the Eagles. Pat Sullivan picked up the win, improving his season record to 2-0. He struck out 2 in 7 innings.

With Washington trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the third, Stites hit a sinker from Tim Fried for a 3-run home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Eagles ahead, 3-1.

"This team is real focused right now," said Washington manager Brandon Tucker.

The defeat makes the Knickerbockers 5-11.
