Runs were scarce at Capitol Park.

In a tension-filled contest between the Detroit Sturgeons and the Washington Federals, pitcher Bill Poole was superb. The Detroit right-hander, who is on pace to win 33 games this season, spearheaded his team's 2-1 win. The Sturgeons move to 76-57 with the win, while the Federals drop to 40-92.

Poole went the distance for Detroit, allowing 1 run on 2 hits, while striking out 6.

"Not everyone likes pitching duels," said Poole. "But I do."
