Los Angeles Slaps 7-3 Loss on Philadelphia
The Los Angeles Suns beat the Philadelphia Keystones, 7-3, at Liberty Coliseum. The Suns got a fine performance from center fielder Larry Hurlbutt, who slugged 2 home runs. Pete Meissner picked up the win, lifting his record to 14-7 on the season. He struck out 4 and walked 4 in 7 innings, while yielding 3 runs. The win for the Suns lifted their record to 77-57.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bill Anderson? The Los Angeles left fielder had a run-scoring walk in the top of the third inning to put the Suns on top, 2-1. For the game, Anderson had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Hurlbutt attributed the win to his team's "collective resolve."
