The Chicago Cubs faced a tough opponent in New York pitcher Joe Lake, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Brush Stadium (NL) by a final score of 5-3. Lake went 5 innings and allowed no runs. Charlie Schmutz was the winning pitcher. Over 9 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 11 hits, with 2 walks and 1 strikeout. Chicago has a 3-game win streak, while New York has lost 3 in a row.

Chicago left fielder Joe F Connolly helped his team get ahead early. In the top of the first, with the bases loaded, he hit a 2-run single.

"We take it day by day here," said Connolly, "and today was a good one for us."
