His record improves to 19-13. The New York winning streak has reached 3 games.

The Columbians took advantage of an error in the top of the first inning. New York was leading 1-0 when Jefferson McMillen hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put the Columbians in front, 2-0.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said New York skipper .
