Wright goes 4-for-5, Leads Knickerbockers to Win
With second baseman Steve Wright leading the charge, the New York Knickerbockers defeated the Philadelphia Quakers, 10-7, at Quakers Stadium. Wright, who is tied for 3rd in the NBL in triples with 4, went 4 for 5 with a home run, a triple, and 2 singles, while scoring 3. Ray Schifsky got credit for the win, improving to 5-3. He allowed 5 runs on 7 hits in 5 innings. New York has 3 straight wins, Philadelphia 3 straight losses.

New York used a clutch at-bat from Francisco Chavez to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Knickerbockers ahead, 5-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Chavez.
