Colts Stick Federals with 7-5 Loss
The Louisville Colts knocked off the Washington Federals, 7-5, at Derby Grounds. Charlie Shanafelt was a big reason Louisville won. The right fielder was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Louisville, at 78-32, sits in first place in the Federal League.

Hick Rogers, who finished 5th in the FL in slugging percentage with .402 in 1880, helped out the Louisville cause in the bottom of the sixth inning with a run-scoring triple. For the game, the left fielder went 1 for 3 with a triple and a walk.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," Rogers said in postgame remarks. "Soon enough, the finish line will be in sight."
