Gothams Notch 6-3 Win Versus Chiefs
The Chicago Chiefs got a sterling performance from first baseman Ed Bloom, but the New York Gothams still prevailed, 6-3. Bloom was 1-1 with a home run and 3 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. At 38-47, the Gothams find themselves in 5th place in the Federal Association.

New York used the hitting of Otto Pilkerton to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the Gothams on top, 4-2. For the game, Pilkerton had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Solid performance from our side," said Gothams manager Bert Carlton.
