| In 10, Chicago Sinks New York, 6-4 | Behind the hitting of Gene Homer, the Chicago Cougars stopped the New York Imperials, 6-4, in 10 innings. Homer went 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4 for the Cougars. Harl Thompson got the save, the 1st for him this season. Chicago, at 38-54, occupies last place in the Continental Association West.
The most important at-bat for Chicago came in the top of the tenth inning, when right fielder Bob Menz stroked a full count fastball to left for a 2-run single, putting Chicago up, 6-4.
Homer said afterward that "winning, obviously, is the main objective." | |
