Collins Powers Barons to 6-4 Win
The New York Barons stopped the Detroit Sturgeons, 6-4, behind an impressive performance from Cornbread Collins. The slugging first baseman made life miserable for Detroit pitching. He went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. New York has now won 3 in a row.

Early in the game, Collins had a 3-run home run for New York. It was his 10th home run of the season and put the Barons on top, 4-1.

"We need to keep playing good baseball," Collins told the New York Bulletin.
