New York Earns 5-4 Win
The Boston Terriers got a sterling performance from pitcher Larry Haines, but the New York Empires still prevailed, 5-4. Haines threw 7.0 innings allowing 2 runs. Jack Pratt earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. His record is now 1-0. Tom Duncan sewed up the save, his 1st.

New York used the timely hitting of Gary Austin to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Empires on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame comments to the New York Bulletin, Austin said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."

With the loss, Boston is 1-4.
