The New York Knickerbockers did just enough to sneak past the Pittsburgh Industrials, 5-4, at Allegheny Field. New York pitcher Danny Abril, in particular, had a standout performance. Ollie Hundley recorded the save for New York, his 10th of the season. New York raised its record to 26-22 with the win.

Early in the game, Abril had a 2-run home run for New York. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Knickerbockers on top, 2-0.

"When you are able to locate the ball, good things are going to happen," said Abril.
