Chicago took on Pittsburgh in front of a lively crowd.

Dick Sebastian, who finished 5th in the FL in OPS with .808 in 1882, led Chicago to a triumph over Pittsburgh. The final score was 11-2. The third baseman went 3 for 4, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 2 runs and added 3 RBI. Jim Lucier picked up the win, improving his season record to 28-17. He struck out 1 in 9 innings.

Chicago used the hitting of Bill Avery to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a solo home run in the top of the first inning to put the Cyclones on top, 1-0. For the game, Avery had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We're one win closer to our goal," Avery said in postgame remarks.

The loss makes Pittsburgh 46-57.
