New York Tags Washington with 6-2 Defeat
The New York Titans knocked off the Washington Senators, 6-2, in Eastern Conference action at The ESPN Zone. New York pitcher and La Rosita, Texas, native Matt Pontius had an outstanding performance. Pontius got the win, improving to 4-1. He gave up 7 hits and walked 0 over 6.2 innings. He allowed 2 runs. The Senators drop to 14-15 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2083 season.

Joji Mukai had a big 2-run home run for the Titans in the top of the fourth inning. With New York leading 2-0 and a runner on 3rd, he sized up a fastball from Steve McFarlen, who led the WC in innings pitched with 224.0 in 2074, and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Titans on top, 4-0.

"It was our day today," Pontius told the New York Observer. "But we've got to keep our nose to the grindstone."
