The Baltimore Black Sox picked up a win at Yankee Stadium, dropping the New York Black Yankees, 5-4. Dick Ellsworth was the difference-maker. Buddy Groom converted his 18th save in 20 tries. The first-place Black Yankees have lost 4 consecutive games.

Baltimore needed the clutch hitting of Earl Averill to seal the deal. The designated hitter swatted a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Black Sox on top, 5-4. For the game, Averill had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Averill, "one at-bat at a time."
