Cougars Need Extra Innings to Top Sailors, 4-2 | Chicago Cougars starter Roy Ellis hurled his team past the San Francisco Sailors, 4-2. The Cougars, at 24-12, lead by one game in their division.
Chicago used the timely hitting of John Morrison to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the 12th inning to put the Cougars on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.
Chicago manager Buck Cuppett praised his team's "businesslike approach." | |
