Traders Take Home 3-1 Win Over Los Angeles
The Chicago Traders went home winners at Union Field, thanks in large part to starter Bobby Peters. Peters stifled the Los Angeles Blockbusters, enabling Chicago to grab the 3-1 win. The win boosted Chicago to 28-17.

Chicago shortstop Dave Lindsey contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two down, he hit a cutter to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 31st hit of the season and put the Traders ahead, 2-1.

"Bobby pitched like a champ," said Chicago manager Larry Link.
