Philadelphia Unions (28-42) 0 1 4 0 2 0 1 2 X 10 10 3
Unions Dispose of Colts, 10-2
Philadelphia starter Bancroft King kept the Louisville hitters in check, while his team cruised to a win, 10-2. King yielded 2 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 8 hits, walked 2, and struck out 4. His record improves to 14-13. The setback makes Louisville 40-29.

John Casey had a big run-scoring double for the Unions in the bottom of the third inning. With Philadelphia leading 2-1 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from Alfred Mahone, who is on pace to win 11 games this season, and swatted a double to right. It was his 18th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Unions ahead, 3-1.

Louisville manager called the blowout loss "nothing to write home about."
