Chiefs Stop Plowboys, 4-1
The Moline Plowboys got a sterling performance from pitcher Steve Busby, but the Syracuse Chiefs still prevailed, 4-1. Busby threw 8.0 innings allowing 4 runs. Tommie Sheppard, credited with the win, is now 1-0. He allowed no runs on 4 hits. Syracuse goes to 5-1.

The game was on the line with two out in the top of the eighth inning, but Terry Forster didn't flinch. With a runner on 1st and Moline trailing 1-0, Forster retired Mike Jorgensen to end the threat. "Nothing to it," said Forster, with a wink.
