Cougars Pull Out Late-Game Win, 7-6
Getting offensive support from Fuzzy Cronin, the Chicago Cougars topped the Seattle Kings, 7-6. Cronin was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the Cougars. The 5th-place Cougars go to 64-78.

When he came to bat in the bottom of the ninth, Gene Homer had a chance to end it. Seattle pitcher Billy Collins had other ideas. But with one out, Homer hit a sacrifice fly. The Cougars had the win.

"My job is to go out and play as hard as I can for the Cougars," said Cronin.
