He pitched 8 innings, giving up 4 hits and 1 run, while striking out 4 and walking 2. The winning streak has now reached 5 games for the Mavericks.

With Kansas City leading 1-0 in the top of the second, Davis hit a changeup from Bob Goldman for a 2-run home run. It was his 9th home run of the season and put the Mavericks ahead, 3-0.

"Nothing to write home about," Chicago manager Pug Bryan said, when asked afterward about the game.
