The New York Aces picked up a win at Aces Field, knocking off the Boston Patriots, 2-0. Starting pitcher Pablo Magana played a key role in the triumph. The Patriots drop to 6-7 and continue their mediocre start to the 1981 season.

Magana gave New York a solid start. The right-hander allowed no runs on 4 hits over 8 innings.

"We take it day by day here," said Turner, "and today was a good one for us."

Philadelphia fails to sweep as Pittsburgh ace pitches a complete game 3.

GAME 1 - Ono Tosses Shutout Against Pittsburgh
In an outstanding mound performance, Philadelphia Fury starter Hiroki Ono fired a complete-game shutout against the Pittsburgh Express at Express Stadium today.

"1 hit?" he said with a laugh following the game. "Listen, I'd be happy with a 30-hitter as long as it was a shutout."
