Braves Win at Chicago, 9-3
Boston pitcher Blaine Thomas did his part in helping his team beat the Chicago Cubs, 9-3. The right-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. Thomas, now 1-0, was the winner. In 8.2 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 1, walking 2, and allowing 3 runs. Boston raised its record to 64-39 with the win.

A key moment came with one out in the top of the fifth. That's when Thomas hit a fastball from Smoky Joe Wood for a 2-run single, putting Boston up, 7-3.

Thomas told a Boston Daily News reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
