The Philadelphia Unions defeated the Chicago Cyclones, 12-11, at Garrison Grounds. John Casey, who finished 5th in the FL in slugging percentage with .455 in 1884, was a standout performer for Philadelphia. His 4 hits included 3 singles and 1 double -- this in addition to the 3 runs he scored and 1 he knocked in. Philadelphia, now 16-9, has gotten their season off to a good start.

Casey was 4-5 with a double and 3 singles. He scored 3 times against the Cyclones. In the top of the first inning, he reached on an error by the 2B, driving in 1 run that put Philadelphia in front, 1-0.

Chicago manager said he was disappointed with the loss. "Whenever you score in double digits, you expect to win the game."
