Unions Stymied by Columbians, Bird
Martin Bird pitched a gem to lead New York to victory over the Philadelphia Unions, 7-1. The Unions, now 4-9, continue their poor start.

Bird, the winner, is now 2-3. In 9 innings of work, he gave up 1 run on 5 hits, while collecting 6 Ks. He essentially shut down the Philadelphia offense.

"I was determined to go the distance," said Bird.
