Traders Win Nail-Biter
The Chicago Traders did just enough to secure a victory over the Los Angeles Blockbusters, 2-1, at Union Field. Nobody did more than pitcher Pete Veirs. The winner was Chicago reliever Larry Moore, now 1-2. The loser was Fred Wild. Chicago is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 5th in 16 games.

The Traders procured the win, in large part because of third baseman Garry Graham. In the bottom of the tenth, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"For the most part, I stayed out of the middle of the plate," Veirs said.
