Church Stars as Gothams Top Suns, 7-2
The exploits of first baseman Paul Church, who is tied for 5th in the FA in triples with 3, helped the New York Gothams defeat the Los Angeles Suns, 7-2. Church was 4 for 5 with a triple and 3 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. The Suns, now 29-17, have lost 4 straight.

With New York leading 1-0 in the bottom of the third, Church hit a slider from Heinie Schmidt for a run-scoring triple. It was his 3rd triple of the season and put the Gothams ahead, 2-0.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said New York manager Charlie Foley.
