| Blues Win, 4-1, Versus New York | Chicago Blues pitcher Butts Parker was in top form, leading his team past the New York Stars, 4-1. Parker, now 10-14, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 1, walking 2, and allowing 1 run. Picking up the save was Arthur Beaber. He's now 4 for 4 in save chances.
A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the eighth, with the game tied, Bill Wells was at the plate when Chicago scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Blues to go in front, 2-1.
Wells attributed the win to his team's "grittiness."
After today's action, Chicago sits at 57-62, while New York falls to 67-50. | | | | | |
