The Birmingham Black Barons welcomed the Wandering House of David to an night game at Wrigley Field.

The Birmingham Black Barons easily defeated the Wandering House of David, 12-3, at Wrigley Field, with third baseman Eddie Mathews a main contributor to the win. He went 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 2 for Birmingham. The winning pitcher was Lefty Gomez. He tossed 110 pitches over 6.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits.

With Birmingham leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Mathews hit a run-scoring single off Wandering hurler Jack W. Taylor. It was the 52nd hit of the season for Mathews and put his team ahead, 2-0.

"I feel like a little kid every time I put the uniform on," said Mathews.

The victory puts Birmingham at 34-49.
