Hawks Prevail, 4-2, Over Seattle
Chicago beat Seattle on the strength of starting pitcher Kevin Edwards's fine effort. The left-hander led his team to a win, 4-2. The winner was Edwards. He threw 8.0 innings allowing 2 runs. The loser was Bernie Underwood. Picking up the save was Leonardo Ibarra. He's now 6 for 8 in save chances.

Harvey Alterman, who led the ABL in triples with 12 in 1963, had a direct impact on the outcome. Alterman contributed a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put Chicago up, 2-1.

"We took home the win," said Alterman. "What's not to like?"

Chicago, with the win, is 42-97.
