The Philadelphia Phillies picked up a win at Polo Grounds 1890-1910, knocking off the New York Giants, 6-3. Starting pitcher John Truan played a key role in the triumph. Truan got the win, improving to 10-4. He gave up 5 hits and walked 2 over 9 innings. He allowed 3 runs. Philadelphia is first in the Eastern League with a record of 48-31.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Johnny Evers? The Philadelphia second baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Phillies on top, 2-1. For the game, Evers had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Evers called the win the result of "everyone working in tandem."
