Gothams Win at Homestead, 7-5
New York and Homestead duked it out and the Gothams came out victorious.

The New York Gothams withstood an impressive performance by Homestead right fielder Roberto Clemente to defeat the Grays, 7-5, at Forbes Field. Clemente belted 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Troy Percival was the winner in relief. His record is now 3-2. The losing pitcher was Gary Lucas.

New York used a clutch at-bat from Larry Doyle to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Gothams ahead, 5-3. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Being able to play a game for a living is one thing. Being able to play it well and contribute to a win is even better," Doyle told the New York Today.

With the win, New York has a record of 57-62. Homestead falls to 60-57.
