Triplets Come Back Late to Top Chiefs, 5-3
Evansville picked up a win at MacArthur Stadium, bumping off the Syracuse Chiefs, 5-3. Pitcher Frederick Strine was a major reason the Triplets emerged victorious. Earning his 5th save for Evansville was Dennis O'Toole. The Triplets now have a record of 63-51.

Evansville used the timely hitting of Mick Kelleher to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Triplets on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"First place," said Triplets manager Buddy Lewis. "This is right where we want to be."
