Phillies Take Down Bridegrooms, 2-1
The Philadelphia Phillies eked out a 2-1 win versus the Brooklyn Bridegrooms at National League Park 1895-1909. Nobody did more than pitcher Hardie Henderson. He was terrific. The win elevated the Phillies to 61-51.

Had Cupid Childs not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Childs hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 2-1, in favor of the Phillies.

"You can't take yourself too seriously," Childs told the Philadelphia Daily News. "But at the end of the day, we do play to win ballgames."
