The Chicago Traders beat the St. Louis Explorers, 8-6, at Union Field. The Traders got a fine performance from catcher Ed White, who went 4-4 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while scoring 2 times. Jose Mojica, the winning pitcher, is now 6-9. He went 6 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits, while fanning 4 and walking 5. Jimmy Calhoun was credited with the save for Chicago, his 27th of the season.

Walt McCord's at-bat in the bottom of the sixth inning was a big one for Chicago. Coming to bat with one out, a runner on 2nd and Chicago trailing 5-4, the pinch hitter hit a run-scoring single.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said McCord.

The winning streak has now reached 4 games for the Traders.
