The Baltimore Clippers handed the Minneapolis Millers a 6-5 defeat in 11 innings at Patapsco Field. Center Fielder Harry Simmons starred for Baltimore. He went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and 2 walks. Charlie Platt earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. He upped his record to 3-1. With the win, the Clippers improved to 67-59.

In the bottom of the 11th, Carl Thompson had a chance to play the hero. And he did, socking a run-scoring single off Minneapolis pitcher Ike Hawley.

Thompson said afterward that "winning is the goal."
