New York Gets 8-4 Win
William Bennett made an impact in the 8-4 New York win over Richmond. Bennett, who led the EL in doubles with 28 in 1909, was 4-5 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 3 times. The Rifles drop to 7-9, as their stumbling start to the 1917 season continues.

In the top of the fifth, Edgar Maslen delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and a runner on 2nd, the New York first baseman hit a run-scoring single, putting the Kings in front, 8-4.

"We're trying to go out there and win games," Bennett told the New York Bulletin, "and we played pretty well tonight."
