Cleveland wasted an exceptional performance by pitcher Ducky Davis, falling to the Kansas City Kings, 6-5. Davis threw 8.0 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. The Kings raised their record to 49-35.

Zion, Illinois-born Charlie Rogers came through in the clutch. In the top of the ninth, with the bases loaded and the Kings trailing 5-4, he hit a 2-run single to center to put Kansas City on top.

"When you win, you always have confidence," said Kansas City skipper Glenn Carney. "Nobody likes to lose. Losing is a downer. That's how we look at it. It's always good to win."
