July 3rd, 1933
Philadelphia Sailors (36-41): 4
Chicago Cougars (53-25): 8

W: Max Wilder (7-7)
L: William Jones (6-9)
SV: Chick Meehan (9)

The wins keep on coming and we were a game away from finishing the first half with a sweep. Cy Bryant had a much needed good showing, 3-foe-4 with a homer and 4 RBI's. Tom Taylor was 2-for-5 with a double, 2 runs, and 3 RBI's. Bill Ashbaugh was 2-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored. Bobby Sprague was 2-for-4 with a walk and run scored. Max Wilder almost went the whole game, getting all but the final out. He allowed 9 hits, 4 runs, 4 walks, and he struck out 3. Chick Meehan walked one, but then got a ground out to end the game.

July 4th, 1933
Philadelphia Sailors (37-41): 10
Chicago Cougars (52-26): 0

W: Rollie Beal (12-4)
L: Jim Crawford (7-5)

The guys must have thought the break started today, as no one did much of anything well. Jim Crawford had a start to forget, 8 hits with 7 runs, 3 walks, and 3 strikeouts. Norm Stewart also had his fist negative outing, allowing 5 hits and 3 runs with a walk and 2 strikeouts in 3 innings of mop up. The offense was pretty bad, and when Harry Simmons (2-for-4) leads your team in hits for a game something probably went wrong. Tom Taylor was 1-for-4 with a double. Bill Ashbaugh was 1-for-3 with a walk and steal.

July 7th, 1933
Chicago Cougars (54-26): 6
Baltimore Cannons (36-43): 5

W: Dick Leudtke (10-4)
L: Joe Newsom (2-4)
SV: Chick Meehan (10)

Don't let the score fool you, Dick Leudtke pitched really well. After pitching yesterday in the All-Star game, he went just 8. He allowed 9 hits, a run, and a walk with 2 strikeouts. Claude Purvis came in, and had his first tough game of the season. He allowed 4 hits and 4 runs with a walk while just getting one out through a strikeout. Chick Meehan, after 24 pitches the day before, needed just 7 today to get the final two outs and save the win. Tom Taylor was 3-for-5 with an RBI. Arnold Bower was 2-for-4 with a triple and run scored. Mike Taylor was 1-for-3 with a double, 2 walks, 2 runs, and an RBI. Cy Bryant was 1-for-3 with a triple, walk, run, and RBI. The starter Leudtke was 1-for-3 with an RBI.

July 8th, 1933
Chicago Cougars (54-27): 2
Baltimore Cannons (38-43): 6

W: Rabbit Day (11-6)
L: Tommy Wilcox (11-7)

Well, we won't go undefeated in the second half, dropping this one 6-2. Wilcox was outdueled by Rabbit Day, who probably deserved to be an All-Star and wasn't named. I probably should have given Wilder this Start, but it was a good effort for Wilcox. He went 7 with 11 hits, 6 runs (5 earned), and 3 strikeouts. Mike Taylor was 2-for-4 with a run scored and driven in. John Kincaid was 2-for-4 with a doubled and run scored.

July 9th, 1933
Chicago Cougars (55-27): 8
Baltimore Cannons (38-44): 3
Game 1

W: Dick Lyons (12-3)
L: Ken Carpenter (11-6)

An awkward double header to end the week, but we did well in the opener. It was a duel between All-Stars and Dick Lyons had the better showing. He tossed a complete game with 6 hits, 3 runs, 2 walks, and a strikeout. Claude Ramsey was 3-for-4 with a run scored and two driven in. Phil Vaughan was 1-for-3 with a walk, 2 runs, and a big three run homer in the first. John Kincaid was 3-for-5 with a double, triple, run, and RBI. Bobby Sprague was 1-for-3 with a sac-bunt and two runs scored.

July 9th, 1933
Chicago Cougars (56-27): 8
Baltimore Cannons (38-45): 1
Game 2

W: Max Wilder (8-7)
L: Bob Miller (7-12)

Couldn't have done this any better as we sweep the double header with a nice 8-1 win. Max Wilder allowed just 2 hits with a run, walk, and 4 strikeouts in an All-Star level performance. Tom Taylor had a big game, 3-for-4 with a double, homer, walk, and 4 RBI's. John Kincaid was 2-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored. Bobby Sprague was 2-for-5 with 2 runs scored.

Stars of the Week
Tom Taylor : 26 AB, 12 H, 1 HR, 8 RBI, .462 AVG, 1.231 OPS
Cy Bryant : 23 AB, 8 H, 1 HR, 6 RBI, .348 AVG, .950 OPS
John Kincaid : 25 AB, 9 H, 0 HR, 1 RBI, .360 AVG, .967 OPS

Weekly Summary
It is July, and while no trades have been made, I have been working on something for the past couple of days. Keep in mind, this is something that started when we were probably 2.5 up not 10.5 up. The now third place Saints (45-39) will host us North of the border for four. We play two, have an off day, and then play another two. They've played us well, so this will be a big series. We're then off to New York for four with the Stars (43-40) who are floating over .500. I wish they did a little more of this last year, but instead, they decided to just win every game. They're still a dangerous team we got to take seriously. This could be a tough week for us. With the All Star report, not writing too much else here.
