New York second baseman Wendell McCurrine produced at a critical juncture. It happened in the top of the ninth with Phillie Brown on the mound and New York leading 4-3. McCurrine reached on an error by the left fielder, driving in 2 run3.

"Nice win," said Clark. "Not sure what else you want me to say."
