Chiefs Take It on Chin, Lose 11-3 to Los Angeles
Bill Kearney was instrumental in his team's 11-3 triumph over the Chicago Chiefs. The left fielder was 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for the Los Angeles Suns. Heinie Schmidt, the winning pitcher, improved to 1-1. He pitched 6.2 innings, giving up 9 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 2. The loss drops the Chicago record to a disappointing 4-7.

With Los Angeles leading 2-1 in the top of the fifth, Kearney hit a slider from Johnny Maples for a 2-run double. It was his 1st double of the season and put the Suns ahead, 4-1.

"We hit the ball on the barrel," said Los Angeles manager Jim Coulter.
