Cougars Toast Wranglers, 11-3
Gene Case powered the Chicago Cougars to a win over the Dallas Wranglers. The final score was 11-3. The Chicago first baseman, who is tied for 8th in the CA in triples with 8, was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. The winning pitcher was Don Griffin. He tossed 72 pitches over 5.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits. The save went to Earle Turner, number 3 for him.

Chicago third baseman Cal Randall contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the first. With two down, he hit a curveball to right-center field for a 2-run single. It was his 81st hit of the season and put the Cougars ahead, 3-1.

"We hit the ball hard," said Chicago manager Buck Cuppett. "Line drive after line drive."

The Cougars have an impressive 70-44 record.
