Turner, Black Kings March to 5-4 Victory
New York beat Buffalo at Niagara Park, eking out a 5-4 win. The win was due in large part to right fielder Ben Turner. He was 3-4 with a home run and a double, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Eugene Rowe was the winner. Over 7.2 innings, he yielded 4 runs on 7 hits, with 2 walks and 5 strikeouts. George Augustus picked up the save, his 6th.

Early in the game, Turner had a 2-run home run for New York. It was his 5th home run of the season and put the Black Kings on top, 2-0.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said New York manager Walter Dunlap.

The Black Kings lead the Great Northern Gotham by 10½ games.
