Kings Beaten, 8-3, by Chicago
The Chicago Cougars locked up a win at Cougars Park, knocking off the Seattle Kings, 8-3. On the mound for Chicago was right-hander Roger Alford. He played a major role in the triumph. In 7 innings, Alford surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 2. He allowed 2 runs. The save went to Jim Norris, his 6th this season.

Had Sam Morrison not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Morrison hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Cougars.

"I just tried to focus on getting that first guy out every inning," said Alford.

After today's action, Chicago sits at 16-17; Seattle slips to 19-12.
