New York Dismisses Chicago, 5-3 | Chicago catcher Chappy Sanders was sensational. He was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs. But it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. New York beat the Cougars, 5-3. Earning the save was Glenn Webb. He's now cashed in 5 of 6 save opportunities. The Imperials go to 28-81 with the win.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Jack Woods? The New York right fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Imperials on top, 3-1. For the game, Woods had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"We'll just keep our nose to the grindstone," Woods told the New York Gazette. | |
