Rallying Cyclones Get 9-8 Win
The Chicago Cyclones trumped the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 9-8, in 10 innings. Chicago shortstop Cap White was impactful. He went 3-5 with a double and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Chicago pitcher Tom Davidson got the win. He's now 1-0. Ed Wales was tagged with the loss. Chicago improves to 12-9 as they look to defend their championship.

The decisive blow was delivered by Bill Avery in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a run-scoring double off 30-year old right-handed pitcher Ed Wales to win the game for Chicago. The home crowd went nuts.

"If we keep winning the close games," Avery said, "we'll be in good shape at the end."
