Philadelphia played host to New York at Keystones Park.

The Philadelphia Keystones beat the New York Black Kings, 6-4, at Keystones Park. Philadelphia shortstop James McErvin had an outstanding performance. He was 4-4 with a triple and 3 singles. He scored 2 runs. The Black Kings, at 60-40, have lost 4 in a row.

The game was at a stalemate until pinch hitter Wilson Romes came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing New York pitcher George Augustus, he hit a full count fastball for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Philadelphia on top, 6-4.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Romes told reporters after the game.
