Barons Get Clutch 7-6 Win
The New York Barons beat the Louisville Colts, 7-6, at Columbia Field. New York left fielder Jefferson McMillen, who finished 4th in the FL in triples with 8 in 1881, collected 1 single and 1 double with 3 RBI. New York is now 42-43.

The game was decided with two out in the bottom of the ninth. With New York trailing 6-5, McMillen hit a fastball from Ray Ball for a 2-run single. In the blink of an eye, the Barons had a walk-off win.

"The ending was a real humdinger," McMillen told reporters after the game.
