In a close game at Capitol Field, the Brooklyn Cuban Stars edged the Indianapolis Stars, 5-4. Brooklyn third baseman Bill Carter stood apart with his performance. He went 3-4 with 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Larry Eagle got the win, improving to 10-15. He worked 8 innings, giving up 4 runs on 11 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 3. Ed Collins got credit for the save for Brooklyn. It was his 7th of the year.

Brooklyn relied on the hitting of Frank Lewis to pick up the win. The shortstop ripped a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Cuban Stars on top, 5-4. For the game, Lewis had 1 triple and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We were able to put some good swings on some pitches," Carter told the Brooklyn Chronicle.

The Cuban Stars improved their record to 49-60 by beating Indianapolis.
