The Kansas City Westerners grabbed a win, 11-7, over the Philadelphia Unions at Girard Grounds. Kansas City third baseman Lee Estes went 3-5 with a triple and 2 singles, while scoring 3 and driving in 2. Edmund Robinson got the win, improving to 14-20. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 11 hits and 7 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 8. The setback makes Philadelphia 69-49.

A key moment came when Estes faced Philadelphia hurler Thomas Goss in the top of the fifth. The Westerners, who were trailing 5-4, had the bases loaded. Estes got a full count curveball and hit a 2-run single.

Estes said afterward that "winning is the goal."
