Cougars Corral 6-2 Win
The Chicago Cougars picked up a win at Cougars Park, topping the San Francisco Sailors, 6-2. On the mound for Chicago was right-hander Pete Papenfus. He played a principal role in the triumph. The winning pitcher was Papenfus, now 4-3. He tossed 9 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 4 and fanning 5. Chicago occupies third place in the Continental Association at 19-18.

Eddie Howard had a big run-scoring double for the Cougars in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Chicago leading 3-2 and a runner on 1st, he got a changeup from Danny Hern, who finished 3rd in the FA in innings pitched with 287.1 in 1949, and swatted a double to left. It was his 6th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cougars ahead, 4-2.

"Getting ahead of the hitters was the key," said Papenfus.
