Traders Win Squeaker, 4-3, Over Dairymen
Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the Chicago Traders and Milwaukee Dairymen.

Milwaukee wasted an exceptional performance by pitcher Bob Brion, falling to the Chicago Traders, 4-3. Brion threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. The first-place Traders, at 92-62, now lead their division by 5 games.

Chicago took a 4-3 lead on John Sledd's 13th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Sledd hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Milwaukee pitcher Bernie Kirk visibly frustrated.

Chicago manager Larry Link praised his team's "energy."
