Unions Clipped, 7-5
Louisville Colts starter Woody Ross found his groove in his team's 7-5 win over the Philadelphia Unions. Ross, now 6-10, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 7 hits, while striking out 8, walking 2, and allowing 5 runs. At 45-47, the Colts find themselves in 5th place in the Federal League.

Kermit Nelson was 1 for 5 for Louisville. With one out and the game tied in the bottom of the eighth inning, Nelson, who finished 4th in the FL in batting average with .353 in 1881, had a clutch at-bat. Facing Philadelphia hurler Bancroft King, he reached on an error by the 2B, driving in 1 run to give the Colts a 6-5 lead.

"We'll pocket this win," said Nelson, "and then go after another."
