Chicago Rallies for 6-4 Victory
Al Padgett was a vital contributor to the 6-4 Chicago victory over New York. The Chiefs catcher went 1-3 with a home run and 2 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Tom Fisher, now 2-0, was credited with the win in 1.2 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit, while striking out 3 and walking 1. Their 38-27 record puts the Chiefs second in the Federal Association.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with Chicago trailing 4-3, Padgett hit a fastball from Bill Howard for a 3-run home run, giving the Chiefs the walk-off win.

Padgett described the clubhouse as "kind of rowdy" after the game.
