The New York Barons took on the Pittsburgh Vulcans at Columbia Field.

The New York Barons thumped the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 8-2, at Columbia Field. David King was a big reason his team got the win. King went 3-4 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 3 and driving in 2. At 62-73, the Barons find themselves in 7th place in the Federal League.

The Barons benefited from an error in the bottom of the third inning. New York was leading 1-0 when Cornbread Collins hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put New York in front, 2-0.

"Things went our way," said King.
