New York Downed, 5-3, by Traders
The Chicago Traders defeated the New York Knickerbockers, 5-3, at Knickerbocker Stadium. Leading the charge for Chicago was right fielder Larry Cox. He was 1 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Jimmy Calhoun converted his 15th save in 22 tries. Chicago is now 66-72, New York 78-60.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Tim Rathbone to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Traders on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

Rathbone called the win "a lesson in teamwork."
