Benton(11-13) escaped virtually unscathed against the Washington hitters. He allowed just 2 hits and no walks in 7 and 2/3 innings. Chicago had 7 hits for the afternoon while Washington had 2. Russ Ford recorded his 2nd save. The loss was charged to Jean Dubuc(2-5). He gave up 7 hits and 4 walks in 8 innings. The Chicago ballclub's record now stands at 61-52. Washington can't seem to snap out of their recent 'funk'. Now they have a miserable 2-8 record over the last couple weeks.
