Captains Slap 7-4 Loss on Chicago
The San Diego Captains had to overcome a big game from Chicago first baseman John Sledd to leave Union Field with a victory. And they did, winning, 7-4. Sledd went 3-4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Ed Payne earned the win for San Diego. He lasted 7.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits, while striking out 4. With the win, he raised his record to 10-3. The National Baseball League Western Division-leading Captains have a record of 63-42.

San Diego used a clutch at-bat from Earl Peters to capture the win. The catcher hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the Captains ahead, 6-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I like our moxie," said Captains manager Joe Mack.
