Baltimore Beaten, 6-3, by New York
The New York Excelsiors topped the Baltimore Bannermen, 6-3, in International Association action at Banner Field. The standout performance belonged to New York pitcher and Roswell, Georgia, native Grant Dorsey. Dorsey got the win, improving to 17-13. He gave up 11 hits and walked 1 over 9 innings. He allowed 3 runs. The Excelsiors now own a record of 56-49.

New York used the timely hitting of Willis Gaylord to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Excelsiors on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

New York manager praised his team's "no BS approach."
