Orphans Win United States Championship Crown
With a 11-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies tonight at West Side Grounds 1894-1915, the Chicago Orphans wrapped up their 2nd title in team history.

Chicago left little doubt who was the better club. "Team" was the word of the day as the Orphans celebrated the culmination of their banner year in the victors clubhouse following the game.

"Hitting, pitching, fielding; those are all things you need to win, but most importantly you need a team, a team that works together toward the same collective goal," said Chicago manager Cherokee Fisher. "Our players felt that way all year and they played that way. When one guy had an off day, 24 others stepped up their game and filled the void."

A jovial mood filled the air as Chicago celebrated into the night. The city's mayor said parade plans were underway and a "huge celebration" in the works.

"We're going to celebrate our team, our championship Chicago Orphans," the mayor said.

The champions completed the regular season with a first-place finish in the Western League and a 86-46 record.
