McRoberts Leads Excelsiors to Win
In a high-scoring game between New York and Cincinnati, right fielder Frank McRoberts was a difference-maker. The 28-year-old helped New York grab the 10-8 win. He went 4-5 with a triple and 3 singles. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Patsy Kelly got the save, the 1st for him this season. The defeat makes Cincinnati 25-45.

Had Jim Scott not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, Scott hit a 2-run single. That made the score 10-8, in favor of the Excelsiors.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said New York manager .
