Home Loss Shrinks Packers Series Lead to 3-2
The Chicago Traders have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Cincinnati Packers, winning, 5-4, at Roman Arena. Traders right-hander Larry Cox threw 6.0 innings of 3-hit ball. The win cuts the deficit facing the Traders to 3-2 in the best-of-7 League Championship Series.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Jimmy Benson? The 23-year old right fielder Benson stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put Chicago up, 5-1. For the game, he was 3 for 5, including 2 doubles and 1 single.

"Larry kept his poise and got the job done," said Chicago manager Larry Link. "He was outstanding."

The next game is set to be played for Friday, October 17th , 1969 at Union Field in Chicago.
