Blues Prevail, 4-3, Over Pittsburgh
Chicago right-hander Larry Wurth pitched his team to victory over the Pittsburgh Mechanics at Cocker Park. The final score was 4-3. Wurth yielded 3 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 11 hits, walked 2, and struck out 5. His record improves to 8-4. Chicago has now won 5 straight.

Chicago used a well-timed hit by Bob Wojtkiewicz to capture the win. The left fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Blues ahead, 4-3. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Larry did a good job of managing their lineup," said Chicago manager Mike Dermer.
