Brahmins Snag 7-6 Win
The Boston Brahmins beat the New York Excelsiors, 7-6, in part because of second baseman Don Frison. He was 2 for 3 with 2 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The winning pitcher was 23-year old right-handed pitcher Roy Kane. He tossed 156 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 6 runs on 11 hits. After today's action, Boston sits at 19-36, while New York falls to 20-34.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With two out, Frison hit a changeup from Bill Nolette for a run-scoring single. The Brahmins, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"This place was rocking at the end," Frison said.
