Colts Pull Out Late Win, 9-8
The Louisville Colts beat the Philadelphia Unions, 9-8, at Derby Grounds. Frank Crumbley starred for Louisville. He went 3 for 4 with 3 singles, while scoring 3 runs. The first-place Colts have won 6 straight games.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Louisville catcher Ken Duncan, facing Johnson Allen, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Colts the 9-8 win.

"This joint was rocking," said Duncan.
