Traders Earn Late Win
The Chicago Traders used the hitting of right fielder Tim Rathbone to subdue the Milwaukee Dairymen, 6-5. For the game, Rathbone went 4 for 5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 3 runs. The win belonged to Vern Marcell in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Pete Costabile took the loss for Milwaukee. The Traders improved their record to 86-73 by beating Milwaukee.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Ted Karoly to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Traders on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Baseball is such a beautiful game," said Rathbone. "Anything can happen on any night, and that's why you don't dwell on what happened yesterday. Just look forward and trust you're going to have positive results."
