Host Empires Drop Pivotal Game 5, Now Trail Series 3-2
Game 5 was big. So was Joe Shannon.

The Chicago starter rose to the occasion at Queens Field today, earning player of the game honors after leading the Traders to a crucial 5-1 victory over the New York Empires. Shannon threw 9 innings allowing 1 run as the Traders won on the road to seize a 3-2 lead in the best-of-7 World Series.

It could have been a different outcome for Chicago, had it not been for Whitey Jackson, the five-time All-Star . Jackson contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put Chicago up, 2-0.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Shannon told reporters after the game.

The next game is scheduled for Thursday at Union Field. Slated to start are Mike Higgins for New York and Aart MacDonald for Chicago.
