Philadelphia Phillies (48-32) 3 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 4 12 1
New York Giants (32-48) 0 1 0 0 1 0 2 4 X 8 12 2
New York Rallies for 8-4 Win
Roy Thomas impressed in the 8-4 New York win over Philadelphia. Thomas went 2 for 3 with 2 singles and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. The winner was Bert Abbey, who threw 132 pitches over 9 innings. The right-hander was charged with 4 runs on 12 hits. At 32-48, New York is in last place in the Eastern League.

Had Amby McConnell not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, McConnell hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Giants.

"We didn't pitch good, and when you don't pitch good, you lose," said Philadelphia manager Matthew Goforth.
