Traders Win, 5-2, at Philadelphia
The Chicago Traders defeated the Philadelphia Quakers, 5-2, at Quakers Stadium. Chicago first baseman John Sledd had a superb performance. He went 3-4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs. Randy Birch went 6.2 innings for Chicago to pick up the win. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs. He scattered 7 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 3. His record improves to 2-0. The win takes Chicago to 7-3.

Chicago took a 4-2 lead on Ed White's 2nd home run of the season. The solo home run, which White hit in the top of the eighth, left Philadelphia pitcher Darrell Klug visibly frustrated.

"We're learning some lessons in the school of hard knocks," philosophized losing manager Jeff Green.
