Eager fans turned out for a matchup between the Chicago Hawks and Twin Cities Northmen.

Chicago right fielder Mark Morris had 6 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Twin Cities Northmen, 7-2. Johnny Russell got the win, improving to 2-0. He held the Northmen to no runs on 3 hits over 8 innings, while striking out 5 and walking 4.

Chicago took a 4-0 lead on Morris's 5th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which he hit off Dave Church in the top of the sixth, propelled Chicago to the win.

"I'm proud of the way our guys played today to come out with this win," Morris told the Chicago Daily News.
