At Yankee Stadium, the Grand River fans witnessed a great pitcher's duel.  Pud
Galvin(1-3) finally bested his Grand River opposite, Nap Rucker(4-2), by the
score of 2 to 1.

Galvin earned his pay with a solid performance for Galvin. He went 6 innings
allowing 4 hits and 3 walks.  Grand River made it exciting in the 9th, but
they were unable to push the needed runs across. 

Dennis Eckersley earned the save, his 25th.  Rucker was the loser.  'We lose
our concentration for one pitch, and we lose the game.' Buck Guthrie said
after the game.  'Maybe now these guys will listen when I say they have to
concentrate on EVERY pitch.'
