Knickerbockers Score 7-4 Win Against Washington
A 3-RBI performance from Francisco Chavez, who finished 4th in the NBL in home runs with 31 last year, helped the New York Knickerbockers beat the Washington Eagles, 7-4. The second-place Knickerbockers have a record of 64-56.

With New York trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the fifth, Chavez hit a cutter from Tom McAteer for a 2-run double. It was his 15th double of the season and put the Knickerbockers ahead, 4-3.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Chavez. "And not try to do too much."
