Cougars Suffer One-Run Loss at Cleveland
Hugh Blumenthal was locked in. The left-hander led the Cleveland Foresters to a 4-3 win against the Chicago Cougars at Forester Stadium. The Cougars fall to 7-9 and continue their uneven start to the 1954 season.

The Foresters got a gift in the bottom of the third inning, when they were leading 1-0. With two out and the bases loaded, Larry McClure reached on an error by the 1B, driving in 1 run. It made the score 2-0, Cleveland.

"I just tried to attack the bottom of the zone," Blumenthal said.
