Gehrig Slugs Black Yankees to 14-5 Win
Thanks in large part to designated hitter Lou Gehrig, the New York Black Yankees beat the Miami Cuban Giants, 14-5. Gehrig was 3 for 5 with 2 home runs and a double. He scored 3 runs and drove in 4. Andy Pettitte, who is tied for 7th in the AL in quality starts with 12, was the winning pitcher. Over 6 innings, he allowed 4 runs on 7 hits, with 1 walk and 6 strikeouts. The second-place Black Yankees have won 4 consecutive games.

With New York leading 2-1 in the top of the fourth, Gehrig hit a curveball from Cole Hamels for a solo home run. It was his 44th home run of the season and put the Black Yankees ahead, 3-1.

"We're a talented bunch when we're playing well," said Gehrig. "I think we showed that here."
