Washington Gets Riveting Walk-Off Win
The Washington Eagles topped the New York Gothams, 5-4, at Columbia Stadium. Washington third baseman Mel Carrol banged out 3 singles and 1 double, while driving in 1 runs. Reliever Ike Keller picked up the win. His record improves to 3-4. Steve Groves took the loss. The victory gives Washington a record of 44-38.

Rats McGonigle was the walk-off hero for Washington. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Eagles center fielder hit a dramatic solo home run to send the teams home.

"The fans pay the tickets and help us do what we do, so we like to put on a show for them," Carrol told the Washington News.
