Center fielder Reggie Smith cracked a homer and had 2 RBI as the Chicago River Dogs beat the Baltimore Orioles by a score of 8 to 3.
Chicago came up with 4 runs in the 5th inning when they had 3 base hits. The key offensive moment was provided by Cleon Jones who brought a roar from the partisan Wrigley Field fans when he tripled plating three runs. Chicago finished with 11 hits while Baltimore ended up with 4.
The win went to Jim Nash(1-0) who allowed 3 runs in 7 and 2/3 innings. Bill Zepp(0-1) was tagged with the loss. He got hit hard, allowing 10 hits and 3 walks in 7 innings.
