Traders Victorious at Pittsburgh, 6-1
Chicago pitcher Dennis Strzelczyk had a large part in his team subduing the Pittsburgh Industrials, 6-1. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the left-hander. In 8.1 innings, Strzelczyk surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. Chicago has 3 straight wins, Pittsburgh 3 straight losses.

Jeff Madsen hit a run-scoring triple off Roger Long in the top of the first, which put the Traders in front, 1-0. Madsen had 1 single, in addition to the triple. For the game, he went 2 for 4.

Madsen said his team "played with determination."
