| Kansas City Defeated By Cougars, 3-2 | Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Chicago Cougars and Kansas City Kings.
The Cougars grabbed a win, 3-2, at Cougars Park, overcoming a fine effort from Kansas City pitcher Curly Anderson. Anderson went 8 innings and allowed 3 runs. Hank Walker, who finished 2nd in the CA in ERA with 2.99 in 1959, was the winner. He's now 2-1. The loser was Curly Anderson.
The Cougars got a big at-bat from first baseman Gene Case. For the game, Case was 1 for 4 with a double. In the bottom of the fifth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 2nd double of the season gave Chicago a 3-2 lead.
"Good pitching, clutch hitting," said Chicago skipper Buck Cuppett. "I can't complain."
Chicago, now 16-8, has played well in the early going.
