American Giants Win at Miami, 9-8
Dick Allen was instrumental in his team's 9-8 triumph over the Miami Cuban Giants. The third baseman hit 2 home runs for the Chicago American Giants. Tom Williams earned his 2nd save in 5 chances. The last-place American Giants are 54-68.

Chicago used a clutch at-bat from Frank Thomas to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the American Giants ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"We'll kick back tonight, then get set for the next one," Thomas said.
