Chicago Wins, 3-2, Over Unions
In a low-scoring affair between the Chicago Cyclones and the Philadelphia Unions, pitcher Jim Lucier was the difference between victory and defeat. The Chicago right-hander earned kudos in the 3-2 Cyclones win. Lucier, now 28-18, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 5, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. Chicago, at 64-59, sits in 4th place in the Federal League.

Bill Avery was the walk-off hero for Chicago. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Cyclones center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"It's great when the crowd is energized," Avery said.
