Cougars Win Thriller, 3-2
Chicago Cougars starter Johnnie Jones was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the New York Stars, 3-2. David Molina, now 1-0, was credited with the win. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 1 and walking 0. Chicago has a mark of 4-6 after the win.

Leo Mitchell was the walk-off hero for Chicago. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Cougars left fielder hit a dramatic solo home run to send the teams home.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," New York manager Ken Tannen said following the tough loss.
