Cronin goes 4-for-5, Leads Cougars to Win
Fuzzy Cronin was a major factor in the 10-4 Chicago win over Cleveland. The Cougars center fielder was 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 5. Hal Adams earned the win to go to 10-9. He allowed 1 run on 7 hits, with 1 walk and 7 strikeouts in 5.2 innings of work. Chicago now sits at 51-70, while Cleveland falls to 53-66.

The Chicago dugout showed signs of unrest at times. But the Cougars put this one in the win column with some good pitching and some timely hitting at critical moments.
