Chicago 3-1 Victors at Independence Field
In a tight affair between the Chicago Traders and the Kansas City Bulls, pitcher Jack Storey was in the zone. The Chicago right-hander helped his team win the game, 3-1. Chicago currently is in third place in the National Baseball League Western Division at 55-52.

Chicago used the hitting of Jimmy Benson to pick up the win. The right fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Traders on top, 3-1. For the game, Benson had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Jack was really on it," said Chicago manager Larry Link. "He's got a feel for playing with the hitter front-to-back, side-to-side."
