Wet field conditions in Polo moved the game to Burleigh Grimes Field in Trenton, although Polo remained the home team, batting in the bottom of innings.
Camden Skipper went the first 5 1/3 innings for Trenton, and was very strong before running into sixth-inning difficulties. Skipper struck out ten batters and allowed only three hits and three runs, although two were earned as Trenton had five errors defensively. Elijah Miller pitched the final 2/3 of an inning for the Bulldogs, and struggled with control, walking three batters and allowing an unearned run, with both of his outs achieved coming via strikeout.
