The Philadelphia Unions handed the Chicago Cyclones a sound defeat, 11-1, at Girard Grounds II.

He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for Philadelphia. Paul Bates was the winner. Over 9 innings, he yielded 1 run on 4 hits, with 4 walks and 2 strikeouts. Philadelphia occupies last place in the Federal League at 26-43.

Cecil Everette, who is on pace for 57 RBI this season, took Chicago hurler Harlan Akins deep in the bottom of the fifth. His 3-run home run put the Unions on top, 3-1. In all, Everette had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

Chicago manager called the blowout loss "a real bummer."
