Washington Dealt 3-1 Defeat
The New York Knickerbockers got a magnificent performance from pitcher Vern Gould, who muffled the Washington offense en route to a tight, 3-1 Knickerbockers win at Monument Field. Wayne Houston recorded the save, making him 9 for 12. The defeat makes Washington 47-64.

The Knickerbockers benefited from an error in the top of the third inning. New York was leading 1-0 when Jeff Madsen hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put New York in front, 3-0.

"It never gets old," said Madsen. "Winning, that is."
