Eagles Down Packers, 4-2
The Washington Eagles faced a tough opponent in Cincinnati pitcher Rich Pedersen, but still scratched out a win at Roman Arena by a final score of 4-2 in 10 innings. Pedersen went 8 innings and allowed 2 runs. Tommy Morton came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on 3 hits in 2 innings. His record now stands at 3-2. Washington has now won 4 straight, while the Packers have lost 4 in a row.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Randy Golick? The two-time All-Star Golick stroked a 2-run double in the top of the tenth inning to put Washington up, 4-2. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

Washington manager Juan Placeholder was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys played hard, they played all the way through," he said.
