New York Triumphs with Late Surge
The New York Excelsiors picked up a win at Lakefront Park, knocking off the Cleveland Clippers, 6-3. Starting pitcher Eddie Montague played a key role in the triumph. In 9 innings, Montague surrendered 11 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 1. He allowed 3 runs. New York is now 8-12.

New York used the timely hitting of Roland Johnson to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Excelsiors on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Johnson called the win "a team effort."
