| American Giants Drop Monarchs, 9-6, with Late Score | The Kansas City Monarchs got a superb performance from pitcher Lefty Williams. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Chicago. The American Giants won the game, 9-6. Williams threw 6 innings of 4-hit ball. Chicago has run its win streak to 4 in a row.
Chicago used the clutch hitting of Jackie Bradley to capture the win. The center fielder drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the American Giants ahead, 8-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.
"We took advantage of our opportunities," Bradley told the Chicago News. "It's as simple as that."
