Bells Win 6-5 Walk-Off
Philadelphia beat St. Louis at Independence Grounds, eking out a 6-5 win. The triumph was primarily due to center fielder Hank Morris. He went 2 for 2 with 2 singles, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times. With the victory, the Bells upped their record to 31-26.

Steve Gould was the walk-off hero for Philadelphia. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bells catcher hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This place was rocking at the end," Gould said.
