Hawks Score Late, Upend Northmen, 5-1
The Chicago Hawks downed the Twin Cities Northmen, 5-1, at Twin Cities Stadium. Stellar pitching by Ken Eldridge had a lot to do with it. The right-hander handcuffed his opponent all game. The Northmen drop to 5-5 and continue their mediocre start to the 1975 season.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the eighth, with the game tied, Andy Bires was at the plate when Chicago scored 2 on an error. The miscue enabled the Hawks to go in front, 2-0.

Chicago manager Mike Flaherty said his team played a "no nonsense" game.
