Baltimore Sent Home with 4-2 Loss
Chicago first baseman Buck DeFalco contributed significantly to his team's 4-2 win over the Baltimore Lords. DeFalco, who finished 2nd in the ABL in triples with 12 in 1960, went 2 for 3 with 1 run scored to lead the offensive attack for the Hawks. Bill Hill earned the win to go to 2-3. He allowed 2 runs on 8 hits, with 4 walks and 3 strikeouts in 8.1 innings of work. Gary Ingram locked down his 4th save.

DeFalco had a game-changing home run in the top of the sixth. On a first pitch sinker from Larry Diego, he banged a 2-run home run to right-center, giving the Hawks a 3-1 lead. It was the 4th home run of the year for DeFalco.

"It feels good to get this one," DeFalco told the Chicago Bulletin.

The win has Chicago at 16-23.
