Washington Eagles starter Curt Kirkley turned in a sparkling performance against the Pittsburgh Industrials, leading his team to a 3-2 win. Kirkley yielded 2 runs over 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 9 hits, walked 1, and struck out 3. His record improves to 5-2. The second-place Industrials dropped to 36-26.

Jeff Lawler drew 1 walk in 4 plate appearances for Washington. The 28-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring walk off Dennis Visco. It was his 11th walk of the season.

Lawler called the win a test of his team's "mettle."
