Despite out-hitting the Gothams 13-9, the Brooklyn Titans are one loss away from losing the 4th Presidents Cup Series to the New York baseball club.

The Gothams, who jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first inning on a walk and three singles, gave up the lead in the top of the 4th.

The Titans scored four runs on five hits and a walk. They tried for a fifth run, but Sheffield was thrown out as he attempted to take home on a bloop single to center.

That run that was defended against eventually won the game for New York, as they took the lead in the 6th inning with a run scored on a fielders choice. The score remained 5-4, even though there was a walk or hit every inning thereafter.

The Gothams need one more win to clinch their victory. The Titans will need to win three in a row to win the series. Today the teams will head back to Brooklyn, and tomorrow Ed Gale will face Thomas Moyer in the seventh game of the series.
