Philadelphia Beats Washington in 12-Inning Thriller
The Philadelphia Unions handed the Washington Federals a loss at Girard Grounds II. The final score was 7-6 in 12 innings. John Casey was one of the major contributors for Philadelphia. In addition to his 3 singles and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The 5th-place Unions are now 43-59, the Federals 38-67.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 12th. With no one out, Casey hit a fastball from Tom Ewart for a run-scoring single. The Unions, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"The game is never over 'til it's over," said a jubilant , the Philadelphia skipper.
