Unions Earn Win with Late Rally
The Philadelphia Unions finished off the New York Columbians, 5-4. Much of the credit belonged to right fielder Leo Showalter. Showalter was 4 for 5 with a triple and 3 singles, while scoring 3 for the Unions. The winning pitcher was Mike McCord. He's now 8-21. He went 9 innings, allowing 4 runs on 11 hits for the Unions. The win makes Philadelphia 15-33, nothing to write home about.

John Casey was the walk-off hero for Philadelphia. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Unions first baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Nice to get this one," said Casey. "Wins have been hard to come by."
