The New York Columbians rode a solid performance from 22-year-old starting pitcher Martin Bird to a win, beating the Louisville Colts, 5-1, at Derby Grounds. In 9 innings, Bird surrendered 9 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 2. He allowed 1 run. At 48-48, New York is in 4th place in the Federal League.

The Columbians got a big at-bat from center fielder Tom Ewart. For the game, Ewart went 2 for 4 with a double. He drove in 3 runs. In the top of the third, with runners on 2nd and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 26th double of the season gave New York a 2-0 lead.

"We scored more than enough runs this time," said New York manager . "Now watch. The next game we'll probably struggle to get a base hit."
