Ricardo Castillo led Chicago to a win over Los Angeles. The final score was 12-3. The right fielder collected 3 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 2 doubles. Troy Myers got the win, improving to 3-2. He worked 7.1 innings, giving up 3 runs on 10 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 1. The victory makes Chicago 13-27.

Tommy Ashton came through with a big-time hit for Chicago. The third baseman smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 6-3. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"We hit the ball hard," said Chicago manager Ollie Howard. "Line drive after line drive."
