Stars Win at Chicago, 7-3
The Los Angeles Stars topped the Chicago Cougars, 7-3, with left fielder Moe Holt playing a big role. Holt went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Stars in the win. Los Angeles is 7th in the Continental Association with a record of 67-83.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Gene Curtis? The Los Angeles third baseman had a run-scoring single in the top of the first inning to put the Stars on top, 2-0. For the game, Curtis had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

Curtis attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
