Barton Stars in 6-2 Cougars Win | The Chicago Cougars defeated the Cincinnati Cannons, 6-2, at Tice Memorial Stadium II. Leading the charge for Chicago was left fielder Jim Barton. He went 4 for 4 with 4 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Pug White collected his 15th save. The 6th-place Cannons dropped to 58-52.
Had Jerry McMillan not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, McMillan hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Cougars.
Chicago manager Buck Cuppett called it "a darn good win." | |
