Both teams were tied at 1 runs apiece after nine innings.  Chicago-NL won it
in the 12th inning.  After an out was recorded, Jack O'Neill ripped a
base-knock.  Kip Selbach stepped up next and he stroked a one-base hit.
Monte Cross got his chance to keep things going, but he went down on strikes.
Dave Fultz was up next and he reached on an error.  Homer Smoot came to the
plate and laced a single resulting in an exciting win for Chicago-NL and a
wild post-game celebration by the home town fans.  Both teams ended up with 9
hits on the afternoon.  

Fred Burchell(2-2) got the win allowing no runs in 2 innings. Watty Lee(8-10)
ended up with the loss in relief.  He was a hard-luck loser as he did not
allow an earned run in his 1 and 2/3 innings of work.
