Scuffling
The Chicks took a train trip to Atlanta and then followed that by facing the incredible Chattanooga Lookouts at home, which had one of the best records ever seen in the minor leagues at 44-11, serving as the Washington Senators top farm team.
@ Atlanta (6/3-5)
6/3: ATL 6, MEM 4; W: Diehl (6-4), L: Appleby (1-5, BS 1); A- 3,630
The Crackers come back from a 4-3 deficit with 3 runs in the bottom of the 8th to earn the first game of the series.
6/4: ATL 10, MEM 5; W: Kinney (4-5), L: Appleby (1-6), HR: ATL- Ellis 2 (6), Cieslak (3); A- 2,947
Babe Ellis had 2 homers and 5 RBI to provide the margin for Atlanta in this one to win the series.
6/5: ATL 14, MEM 4; W: Mistos (4-4), L: Unknown (0-1); HR: ATL- Trippi (6); A- 3,357
Memphis hit four doubles on the day but none of that was enough for the Chicks to earn the win. Atlanta scored multiple runs in 4 different innings to blow out the Chicks.
Chattanooga (6/6-8):
6/6: CHA 17, MEM 1; W: Wynn (6-3), L: LaCroix (0-1); HR: CHA- Wynn (1), Coan (7), Dowell (9); A- 3,063
One of the worst games possible for the home side, as the Chicks signed a Canadian pitcher recommended by a scout, Oscar LaCroix, and he only got five outs. Chattanooga got 8 in the first 3 innings then coasted while Memphis only scored in the 9th.
6/7: MEM 11, CHA 9; W: Unknown (1-0), L: Candini (2-1, BS 1); S: Hanski (1); HR: CHA- Throop (4), MEM- McNair (2); A- 3,726
The Chicks come back from the dead with a 7 run bottom of the 8th inning to come back from a four-run deficit and win by two. McNair had 4 RBIs on the day.
6/8: CHA 8, MEM 7; W: Zukowski (3-0), L: Plumbo (1-2, BS 1); S: Cary (11); A- 3,655
A brutal loss for Memphis, as Ralph McNair pitched his heart out, but had allowed 14 hits before being taken out with 1 out in the 9th inning as Vincent Plumbo allowed 3 runs to give Chattanooga another comeback victory.
