#Baltimore Black Sox
Ken Singleton and Larry Gardner each had 3 hits and each hit a homerun, helping Ned Garvin improve to 7-2 with a 9-2 drubbing of Portland.
#Houston Colt 45’s
Leon Day hit the DL, with Scott Erickson recalled from AAA San Antonio to make a WBL start. Day–who has been quite impressive for a teenager–is done for the season, needing 5 to 6 months to recover from elbow surgery to remove bone chips.
#Kansas City Monarchs
Supported by 3 hits and 2 RBIs from Stan Musial, Connie Johnson, Smokey Joe Wood, and Jeff Pfeffer combined on a 5-hit shutout of Miami. Ducky Medwick also drove in 2 and Lou Brock and Robinson Canó had 2 hits each in the 7-0 victory.
#Ottawa Mounties
Needing a starter, the Mounties sent Monk Dubiel down to AAA, with Gary Peters coming back up to the WBL.
