It was a real, old-fashioned hurling duel between George Mogridge and Urban Faber, in which a total of only eight bingles were recorded, five off the Washington southpaw and three off the star of the Hose. One of this trio was a clout into the left-field bleachers by Bing Miller, due to which the Nationals averted a shut-out. Two others developed in different innings, when none of the three passes Faber is- sued could be taken advantage of.
