John Moss had a 3-RBI game, during Chicago's 6-4 triumph over the St. Louis Pioneers. Moss contributed 1 single, 1 double, and 1 walk to his team's cause. Gene Amico got the win, improving to 3-3. He pitched 7.2 innings, giving up 7 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 5. Earning his 4th save for Chicago was Ernie Espanoza.

Moss had a game-changing double in the bottom of the sixth. On a 3-1 cutter from Clarence Barton, he banged a bases-clearing double to right, giving the Chiefs a 6-4 lead. It was the 11th double of the year for Moss.

"We're in a little bit of a dry spell," said St. Louis manager Cliff Everett.

The Pioneers have now dropped 5 straight.
