Empires Earn Late 4-3 Win
The Toronto Hurons got a sterling performance from pitcher Dan Crumm, but the New York Empires still prevailed, 4-3. Crumm threw 8.0 innings of 4-hit ball. The win went to Tom Duncan in relief. His record improves to 2-1. Ron Haney took the loss. The Empires raised their record to 11-5.

Danny Bueno was the walk-off hero for New York. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Empires pinch hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This game had its share of tense moments," Bueno said, postgame.
