Chicago Hangs 9-5 Loss on Cleveland
Thanks in large part to shortstop Tom Halliday, the Chicago Cougars beat the Cleveland Foresters, 9-5. Halliday was 3-5 with a double and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs. Roger Alford earned the win to go to 9-9. He allowed 5 runs on 12 hits, with 1 walk and 3 strikeouts in 8.1 innings of work. Picking up the save was Augie Hicks, his 6th.

Charlie Sanders helped out the Chicago cause in the bottom of the third inning with a run-scoring walk. For the game, the catcher drew 2 walks.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Halliday told the Chicago News.

The win makes Chicago 49-40.
