Philadelphia Grabs 7-4 Road Win
The Philadelphia Unions picked up a win at Columbia Field, knocking off the New York Barons, 7-4. Starting pitcher Thomas Goss played a key role in the triumph. The triumph puts Philadelphia at 57-45 for the season.

Jeff Scruggs, who finished 2nd in the FL in stolen bases with 28 in 1885, had a timely hit in the top of the fifth inning. With two out and a runner on 2nd, the Philadelphia second baseman hit a run-scoring single. That put the Unions in front, 3-2.

"I made some pitches when I had to," said Scruggs.
