Washington Absorbs 5-3 Loss to Philadelphia
Philadelphia Quakers starter Ricky Canning pitched well against the Washington Eagles at Quakers Stadium, leading his team to a win, 5-3. Picking up the save was 24-year old right-handed pitcher Joe Sclafani. The victory puts Philadelphia at 63-99.

Philadelphia catcher Joey Martens contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With two down, he hit a screwball to right-center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 35th hit of the season and put the Quakers ahead, 3-1.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Martens.
