Westerners Zip Past Barons, 6-2
The Indianapolis Westerners locked up a win at Western Grounds, knocking off the New York Barons, 6-2. On the mound for Indianapolis was right-hander Wilton Strickland. He played a major role in the triumph. Indianapolis is now 10-14.

Bill Windom was 4 for 4 with 4 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Indianapolis. The 31-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring single off Jack McKinley. It was his 22nd hit of the season.

"I think it speaks for itself, I think we came out and we played our kind of baseball," said Strickland.
