Knickerbockers Flatten Eagles, 11-3
The 11-3 New York win over Washington was due largely to Bob Marston. The Knickerbockers center fielder was 4-5 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 2 times. Vern Gould, the winning pitcher, is now 1-0. He went 7 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits, while fanning 3 and walking 1. Washington drops to 2-3.

Dave Lester hit a 2-run double off Rich Moreland in the bottom of the third, which put the Knickerbockers in front, 2-1. In addition to the double, Lester had 1 single, while going 2 for 5.

Lester told the media after that game that the mood in the clubhouse is "extremely positive" after a win like that.
