Chiefs Nip Millers, 5-4
Chicago beat Minneapolis at Hennepin County Stadium, eking out a 5-4 win. The win was due in large part to left fielder Joe Siniscalchi. He was 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The Chiefs, at 78-84, inhabit 5th place in the Federal Association West.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Chris Wells? The 25-year old catcher Wells stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Chicago up, 5-4. For the game, he was 4 for 5, including 1 double and 3 singles.

Chicago manager Ollie Howard was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys played hard, they played all the way through," he said.
