Nolette in Fine Form in 3-1 Win
In a tight tilt between New York and Baltimore, pitcher Bill Nolette was a key contributor. The left-hander earned accolades for his standout performance in the 3-1 Excelsiors win. New York, at 32-59, occupies 7th place in the International Association.

Nolette was effective against the Bannermen, seldom allowing a hard-hit ball. The left-hander limited Baltimore to just 1 run on 4 hits over 9 innings.

"Bill gets on the mound and he competes and that's what you want," said New York manager .
