#Chicago American Giants

As Chicago tries to adjust to life without Frank Thomas for the first half of next season, they continue to give different minor leaguers a chance to show what they have. This time, they sent OFs Duffy Lewis and Vernon Wells and IF Luke Appling to AAA, with Carlos May, Joe Sullivan, and Mike Cameron being recalled.

#Miami Cuban Giants

Looking fully recovered, Phenomenal Smith was officially added to the Cuban Giants rotation.

José Canseco broke out of a mini-slump with 2 homeruns, reaching 64 on the season, as the Cuban Giants beat Portland, 9-8.

Freddie Fitzsimmons was recalled from AA, now that Havana’s season is over.

SS Mickey Doolin retired. Doolin spent about half a season as Philadelphia’s regular SS, but his glovework was never enough to overcome truly dreadful hitting.

#Portland Sea Dogs

Minor league pitchers Jeff Russell and Aurelio López both retired.

#San Francisco Sea Lions

Bill Virdon and Mike González both retired, looking to move into coaching.

Jimmie Foxx hit 2 solo shots, helping Eddie Plank improve his record to 18-7 in a 4-2 win over Miami.
