Walk-Off Win Makes New York 63-52
New York pitcher Candy Lemmons had a large part in his team beating the St. Louis Pilots, 2-1. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. In 9 innings, Lemmons surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 2. He allowed 1 run. New York is in third place in the International Association with a record of 63-52.

John Eliason was the walk-off hero for New York. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Excelsiors shortstop hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

Lemmons told reporters after the game: "Runs were scarce, so we had to work hard to get the W."
