Collins, Columbians Too Much for Blue Caps

With New York leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Collins hit a screwball from Jack McKinley for a bases-clearing triple. It was his 9th triple of the season and put the Columbians ahead, 4-0.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said New York manager .
