| Imperials Beaten, 3-1, by Toronto | George Rigby was a vital contributor to the 3-1 Toronto victory over New York. The Wolves second baseman was 3 for 4 with a home run and a triple. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Gary Preston, who went 6.2 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 1 run on 7 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 2. His record now stands at 4-4. Dick Miller recorded his 12th save for Toronto.
With runs few and far between, the Wolves had to seize their opportunities when they came. One of the most important chances for Toronto came in the top of the fourth inning, when 28-year old third baseman Leo Makepeace delivered a run-scoring single. The single was hit off Chief Williams and made the score 2-0, Wolves. Makepeace went 1 for 4.
Toronto manager Carl Evans said his team played a "no nonsense" game.
Toronto, now 69-81, holds down 5th place in the Continental Association East.
