Louisville pitcher Ed Lane did his part in helping his team defeat the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 3-2. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. Lane got the win, improving to 4-0. He gave up 6 hits and walked 4 over 9 innings. He allowed 2 runs. The Colts have now won 4 straight.

With scoring opportunities rare, the Colts had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the second, when center fielder Hick Rogers hit a run-scoring single. The single came off George Ashe and made the score 3-0, Colts. Rogers was 2 for 4 with 2 singles.

Louisville manager commended his team for delivering "maximum effort."
