The Kansas City Kings defeated the Chicago Cougars by the score of 9-5, with the biggest share of the credit going to first baseman Hank Williams. Williams went 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Kings on the day. Kansas City is now 61-60, Chicago 56-66.

The Kings got a big at-bat from center fielder Charlie Rogers, who in the bottom of the second hit a 2-run double. It was his 36th double of the season and put the Kings on top, 3-0.

"I'm just out there trying to have as much fun as I can while I'm playing," Williams told the Kansas City Citizen.
