The Indianapolis Westerners picked up a win at Garrison Grounds, knocking off the Chicago Cyclones, 11-4. On the mound for Indianapolis was right-hander Wilton Strickland.

Indianapolis, at 63-66, sits in 6th place in the Federal League.

Indianapolis took the lead, 7-3, on Kermit Nelson's 20th double of the season. The bases-clearing double, which Nelson hit in the top of the eighth, made Chicago pitcher Jim Lucier wince.

"Wilton -- I just love the competitor in him," said Westerners manager .
