Colts Stay Hot with Extra-Inning Win
Jed Edwards was instrumental in his team's 8-7, extra-inning triumph over the Philadelphia Unions. The center fielder went 3 for 6 with 3 singles. He scored 2 times for the Louisville Colts. Louisville is now 74-29, while Philadelphia is 41-58.

The decisive blow was delivered by Hick Rogers in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a run-scoring double off 19-year old left-handed pitcher Bill Mangan to win the game for Louisville. The home crowd went nuts.

"Was I getting worried?" said Colts manager . "Nope." Then he added, with a wink, "There was never a doubt in my mind."
