Gold Sox Clip Nuggets in Tight Contest
Chicago and Rocky Mountain met at Nuggets Park and the Gold Sox emerged with a win.

Dewitt Hopper was instrumental in his team's 9-8 triumph over the Rocky Mountain Nuggets. The left fielder went 3-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2 for the Chicago Gold Sox. Raúl Areola picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-0. Jorge Garza was tagged with the loss. Javier Dávila earned the save, his 7th.

The most crucial at-bat for Chicago came in the top of the ninth inning. That's when Hopper stroked a first pitch fastball to right for a solo home run, putting Chicago up, 9-8.

Hopper told the Chicago Citizen: "I don't feel you win baseball games by working harder than the other team or 'wanting it more.' You win just by scoring more runs."

Chicago has a mark of 9-5 after the win.
