The Sheffield Talons beat the London Fog, 9-1, at Talons Park. Sheffield right fielder Arthur Byrne had an outstanding performance. He was 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Eugenio Mendoza, the winner, improved to 1-3. He held the Fog to 1 run on 3 hits over 9 innings, while striking out 2 and walking 3. Sheffield has a record of 5-6.

The Talons got an important contribution from catcher Generoso Sánchez, who in the bottom of the first knocked a 1-0 fastball into left for a 3-run home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Talons ahead, 4-0.

"I'm just happy to help the team win," Byrne told the Sheffield Citizen.
