In the top of the 2nd inning Chicago went on top for good plating an isolated run on 3 base hits. New York made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across. Taylor(7-3) got the victory, allowing 2 runs for the game. Christy Mathewson(4-4) took the loss. He pitched 9 innings giving up 8 hits and 2 walks. Chicago extended their winning streak to 7 games. Frank Selee was happy with his team's performance of late - 'They're playing solid ball right now' he said. 'Let's hope they can stay focused.'
