Win Goes to Chiefs in Tight Contest
The Chicago Chiefs used a stellar performance from pitcher Vern Osborne to throttle the St. Louis offense en route to an extra-inning, 5-2 win at Pioneer Field III. The loss makes St. Louis 49-31.

The result might have been different, had it not been for 32-year old shortstop Elmer Walters. Walters had a bases-clearing double in the top of the tenth inning to put the Chiefs ahead, 5-2. For the game, Walters had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Tough ballgame, tough loss," said St. Louis manager Lou Ormsby.
