Copeland Slugs 2 Home Runs, Wolves Beat Cougars, 7-6
Kirby Copeland left his imprint on the 7-6 Toronto win against the Chicago Cougars. Copeland, who is tied for 5th in the CA in hits with 80, went 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. George Carter, credited with the win in relief, is now 1-0. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3.1 innings. The Wolves, at 30-42, sit in last place in the Continental Association.

Had Ed Hester not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Hester hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 7-6, in favor of the Wolves.

Said losing manager Doc Woods: "'I liked the effort, just not the results."
