Knickerbockers Walk Off with 3-2 Win
The New York Knickerbockers got a good effort from starter Danny Abril in defeating the Pittsburgh Industrials at Knickerbocker Stadium. The final score was 3-2. Steve Eaton earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. He upped his record to 3-5. With the win, New York upped its record to 55-52.

Wayne Baker was the walk-off hero for New York. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Knickerbockers right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Winning in the last at-bat, there's nothing else like it," said Abril.
