Chicago second baseman Rafael Fuentes was instrumental in helping the Traders triumph, 6-5, over the Washington Eagles. Fuentes was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Randy Weisenberg recorded the save for Chicago, his 42nd of the season. The Traders bumped their record to 87-71 with this latest triumph.

Chicago catcher Ed White contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the first. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 134th hit of the season and put the Traders ahead, 3-0.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said White, "one at-bat at a time."
