Cyclones Walk It Off for 20th Win of Season
The Chicago Cyclones got great pitching from former first round draft pick Victor Anderson, allowing them to bump off the Indianapolis Westerners, 2-1. Anderson got the win, improving to 8-8. He gave up 4 hits and walked 3 over 9 innings. He allowed 1 run. With the win, Chicago raised its record to 20-19.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Chicago. That's when Eli Atwood hit a solo home run off 27-year old right-handed pitcher Wilton Strickland to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"There's nothing like the buzz of a walk-off win," Atwood said.
