Late Offense Lifts New York to 9-6 Victory
Grant Johnson powered the New York Black Yankees to a win over the Detroit Wolverines. The final score was 9-6. The New York shortstop was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. Rheal Cormier earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 1.1 innings. He upped his record to 1-3. Goose Gossage earned his 20th save in 25 chances.

Babe Ruth came through with a big-time hit for New York. The left fielder smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 9-6. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Johnson.

The New York winning streak has reached 4 games.
