Reading's Chaney Strikes Out 17

The Reading Reds were victorious over the Chicago Orphans today 4-3 at Reading Grounds after getting an outstanding performance from starting pitcher Owen Chaney. The 25-year-old Chaney brought his top game to the mound, striking out 17 batters while allowing 12 hits and 5 walks.

"He made a lot of good pitches out there," the Chicago manager said. "He made some of our guys look bad. We didn't help matters by swinging at everything, but we really have to give him credit -- he didn't make many mistakes."

In 16 starts this season Chaney has registered a 10-5 record and a 1.77 ERA.
