Black Kings Win at Cincinnati, 6-3
New York and Cincinnati duked it out and the Black Kings came out victorious.

The New York Black Kings beat the Cincinnati Snappers, 6-3, at Proving Grounds. The Black Kings got a fine performance from left fielder Ira Cox, who was 3 for 5 with a triple and 2 singles. He scored 3 times. The first-place Black Kings, at 60-36, lead the Great Northern Gotham by 9 games.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Jackie Brinson? The three-time Great Glove Award winner Brinson stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put New York up, 5-3. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"I felt good up there," said Cox. "I saw the ball well."
