Colts Deal Reds 7-2 Loss
The Chicago Colts racked up a win at League Park II 1894-1901, bumping off the Cincinnati Reds, 7-2. Allen Pitts, who started for Chicago, pitched effectively for his team. Pitts, now 4-2, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 2, walking 3, and allowing 2 runs. The Reds fall to 6-11 and continue their uneven start to the 1897 season.

The outcome might have been different for Chicago, had it not been for Jimmy Cooney, the 31-year old second baseman . Cooney stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put Chicago up, 6-2. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

Pitts said his team "played with focus."
