Chicago Drops Minneapolis, 7-3
The Chicago Chiefs faced a tough opponent in Minneapolis pitcher Hank Wagner, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Hennepin County Stadium by a final score of 7-3. Wagner went 7 innings and allowed 4 runs. With the win, the Chiefs have a record of 43-44.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Joe Siniscalchi to capture the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Chiefs on top, 6-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but he made it count.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Siniscalchi.
