Creams Handed 6-4 Loss by Philadelphia
1884 is shaping up to be a forgettable year for the Milwaukee Creams.

The Philadelphia Unions knocked off the Milwaukee Creams, 6-4, in Federal League action at Cream City Grounds. Philadelphia pitcher and Brooklyn, New York, native Bancroft King had an outstanding performance. King, now 32-27, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 6, walking 4, and allowing 4 runs.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the top of the sixth, with the game tied, Jim Gray was at the plate when Philadelphia scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Unions to go in front, 5-4.

Gray told a Philadelphia Herald reporter that he was "delighted" with the win.

The Unions win now puts them at 61-46.
