American Giants Prevail, 7-5, Over Miami
The rain did not keep Chicago and Miami from finishing their game.

The Chicago American Giants overcame a pretty good performance by Miami first baseman Jim Thome, beating the Cuban Giants, 7-5, at Baker Bowl. Thome belted 2 home runs. The American Giants, now 8-2, have been playing some good baseball.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Cristóbal Torriente to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the American Giants on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Torriente.
