The Louisville Colts used the hitting of shortstop Norm Heyward to subdue the Indianapolis Westerners, 9-4. For the game, Heyward was 3-5 with 2 doubles. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. The winning pitcher was 26-year old right-handed pitcher Ed Lane. He tossed 112 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 4 runs on 6 hits. The 6th-place Westerners now sit at 35-41.

Heyward contributed a big hit, a 2-run double, for Louisville in the top of the fifth. With his team trailing 3-2, Heyward took a slider from Doc Burbank and stroked the double to left-center. His 18th double of the season allowed the Colts to leap in front, 4-3.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Heyward.
