Launch Sunk by Monuments
Getting a good performance from left fielder Gilberto Amador, the Washington Monuments defeated the Cape Canaveral Launch, 8-4. Amador was 3 for 5 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Monuments. Washington reliever George Skinner was the winner. His record is now 14-3. The losing pitcher was Gordon Ziersch. The first-place Monuments, at 84-57, lead the Appalachian Coastal by 6½ games.

The Launch had been locked in a 4-4 tie with the Monuments going into the bottom of the seventh inning. That changed quickly when the 23-year old first baseman Joe Williams came to the plate. Williams hit a run-scoring double on a 0-1 fastball from Cape Canaveral hurler Gordon Ziersch. It was Williams's 5th double of the year.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Washington manager .
