Traders Jolt Explorers, 7-4, with Late Rally
The home team gave the crowd at Union Field something to cheer about.

The Chicago Traders took St. Louis pitcher Harlan Estes's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Union Field. The final score had Chicago getting past the Explorers, 7-4. Estes went 7 innings and allowed 3 runs, striking out 9. The winner in relief was Jimmy Calhoun. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 9-5.

Chicago took a 7-4 lead on John Sledd's 10th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Sledd hit in the bottom of the eighth, left St. Louis pitcher Dick Lott visibly frustrated.

"This was a nice win for us," said Sledd. "It's one more step toward our ultimate goal."

The win lifted the Chicago record to 93-65.
