St. Louis Stopped, 9-6, by New York
The New York Excelsiors weathered a fine game by St. Louis catcher Myron Chamberlain to upend the Pilots, 9-6, at Excelsior Grounds. Chamberlain went 3-5 with 3 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. The winner was Candy Lemmons, who threw 135 pitches over 9 innings. The right-hander was charged with 6 runs on 13 hits. The Pilots, at 3-9, have stumbled out of the gate.

The Excelsiors benefited from an error in the bottom of the sixth inning. New York was leading 5-4 when Frank McRoberts hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put New York in front, 7-4.

"This team is real focused right now," said New York manager .
