The Chi-town Coalition picked up a win at Coalition Field, taking down the Philadelphia Athletics, 9-2. Starting pitcher Nori Takahashi was a big reason why. With the win, Chi-town upped its record to 23-21.

Willie McCovey, who finished 3rd in the CL in runs with 112 in 1964, chipped in for Chi-town with a 3-run home run in the bottom of the eighth. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 4 runs batted in.

"Winning makes the heart grow fonder -- for more winning," said McCovey, cracking a smile.
