Clark, Yankees Dispatch Devil Rays
The New York Yankees topped the Orlando Devil Rays, 9-1, in Federal League action at Orlando Citrus Bowl. The player of the game was New York pitcher and Bath, Maine native Mark Clark. Even with the win, the Yankees have a dismal 33-103 record.

Clark earned the win, going 9 strong innings for New York. The native of Bath, Maine allowed just 2 hits, while striking out 7. Orlando hitters did next to nothing against the right-hander.

"You score one run, you're not going to win," said Orlando skipper Ben Tennyson. "You can have three Koufaxes and three Drysdales, you're still not going to win."
