Baltimore Defeated By Empires, 5-4
Rick Lintner made an impact in the 5-4 New York win over Baltimore. Lintner, who finished 2nd in the ABL in home runs with 31 in 1973, was 4-4 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 runs. Larry Stanford got credit for the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed 2 runs on 8 hits in 8 innings. New York goes to 2-1 with the win.

New York needed the clutch hitting of Eddie Ellison to seal the deal. The catcher swatted a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Empires on top, 3-2. For the game, Ellison had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Ellison.
