The New York Black Kings beat the Pittsburgh Rollers by a score of 11-3. New York center fielder Ira Cox deserved the lion's share of the credit. Cox went 4-5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for the Black Kings. Charles Griggs earned the win for New York. He lasted 8 innings, allowing 3 runs on 9 hits, while striking out 5. With the win, he raised his record to 19-9. At 68-41, New York is in first place in the Great Northern Gotham.

New York used the hitting of Ben Turner to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Black Kings on top, 8-1. For the game, Turner had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Things kind of got away from us," said Pittsburgh skipper Johnny Grant.
