Orphans Suffer 4-1 Loss to Colonels
Louisville pitcher Adam Dixon had a large part in his team subduing the Chicago Orphans, 4-1. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the left-hander. The Colonels raised their record to 57-46.

In the top of the second, with a runner on 3rd, Dixon came to the plate. He reached on an error by the 3B, driving in 1 run off Toad Ramsey to put the Colonels in the lead, 2-1.

"I'm like wine," said Dixon. "I get better with age."
