The Chicago Chiefs beat the Boston Minutemen by a score of 15-4. Chicago center fielder Joe Siniscalchi deserved the lion's share of the credit. Siniscalchi went 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 times and drove in 3 for the Chiefs. The Chiefs raised their record to 2-5.

Rod Shearer, who finished 3rd in the FA in extra base hits with 66 in 1951, contributed to the Chicago win with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the first. For the game, the right fielder had 2 hits in 6 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 3 RBI.

Shearer told the Chicago Herald: "I was born for the big stage."
