Cyclones Lose By a Run at Philadelphia
The Philadelphia Unions defeated the Chicago Cyclones, 6-5, in Federal League action at Girard Grounds. Philadelphia pitcher Mike McCord had a standout performance. In 9 innings, McCord surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 0. He allowed 5 runs. The win puts Philadelphia at 4-4.

John Tennison drove in one run for Philadelphia. The 31-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Doug Crockett. It was his 5th RBI of the season.

"Main thing is I want the team to win," McCord told a reporter after the game. "Just have to go out there, take care of my job, and give my team a chance to win."
