Quakers Fall Short, 3-2, at New York
Fans saw a dandy of a game between the New York Knickerbockers and Philadelphia Quakers.

In a low-scoring game between the New York Knickerbockers and the Philadelphia Quakers, pitcher Vern Gould was the difference-maker. The New York right-hander was tough as nails in the 3-2 Knickerbockers win. Gould got the win, improving to 3-0. He gave up 4 hits and walked 2 over 7.1 innings. He allowed no runs. Ollie Hundley picked up the save for New York, his 1st of the year.

New York took the lead, 3-0, on Bob White's 4th home run of the season. The solo home run came off Philadelphia pitcher Arnold Jarry in the bottom of the eighth.

"Vern was Vern," said Knickerbockers manager Sean Kelly. "We know what we'll get whenever he takes the mound."

New York has a record of 10-12.
