Excelsiors Deal Monarchs 6-3 Defeat
The New York Excelsiors beat the Cincinnati Monarchs, 6-3. New York pitcher and Detroit, Michigan, native Candy Lemmons led the way. With the win, New York goes to 27-49, while the Monarchs fall to 45-38.

An inflection point occurred with two out in the bottom of the sixth. That's when Excelsiors right fielder Eli Atwood hit a curveball from Norm Mason for a 2-run single. Just like that, New York was up, 4-3.

Lemmons told the New York Observer: "I'm the straw that stirs the drink."
