Barons Claim Late Win
The New York Barons handed the Philadelphia Unions a loss at Girard Grounds II. The final score was 6-4. Jefferson McMillen was one of the major contributors for New York. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The win makes New York 47-50.

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

"We played hard and won," said McMillen. "Sometimes, baseball really is that easy.'
