Chiefs Slap 6-4 Loss on Gothams
Chicago and New York duked it out and the Chiefs came out victorious.

The Chicago Chiefs picked up a win at Gotham Stadium, taking down the New York Gothams, 6-4. Starting pitcher Vern Osborne was a big reason why. Osborne picked up the win for Chicago, going 8 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 9 hits. He now sports a record of 2-2.

Chicago first baseman Irv Clifford contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the seventh. With two down, he hit a fastball to left field for a 2-run single. It was his 21st hit of the season and put the Chiefs ahead, 5-2.

"We had situations where we should have got some runs in, but we didn't get the runs in," said losing manager Harry Davis.

Chicago goes to 10-11.
