New York won the game with a rally in the bottom of the 9th inning as they scored 5 runs on 5 base hits. The critical plate appearance was by Birdie Cree who brought a roar from the partisan Hilltop Park fans when he tripled bringing in two baserunners. Despite losing, Washington out-hit New York 14 to 11. Hippo Vaughn(2-4) went 2 and 2/3 innings allowing no runs for the victory. The loss was charged to Tom Hughes(6-8) in relief. He gave up 2 hits and 1 walk in 2/3 of an inning. Vaughn and Cree were really whooping it up in the clubhouse after the great come from behind victory. As Hal Chase noted, 'A win like this one can do wonders for a team's attitude.' Everyone shares in the joy - the fans, the players - even you guys - it's better than winning by a dozen runs!'
