The winning pitcher was Alex Fonseca. He's now 4-9. He went 8 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits for the Eagles. The Eagles now have a record of 28-30 with the win over Denver.

In the bottom of the 4th, Washington took the lead on a 2-run single by Larry Wools. At the time, the Eagles were trailing 4-3, but Wools's hit with two outs against Denver pitcher Bob Langham put them in front, 5-4.
