Foresters Lose as Cougars Stage Late Rally
Donnie Jones, who finished 3rd in the CA in innings pitched with 254.2 in 1951, had a strong outing for the Chicago Cougars against the Cleveland Foresters at Cougars Park. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 4-1 win. Jones picked up the win for Chicago, going 8 innings. He gave up 1 run on 9 hits. He now sports a record of 9-10. The Cougars win now puts them at 51-59.

Chicago took a 2-1 lead on Buddy Byrd's 6th triple of the season. The run-scoring triple, which Byrd hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Cleveland pitcher Hugh Blumenthal visibly frustrated.

Byrd called the win a testament to his team's "grit."
