Baltimore Beats St. Louis, 7-6
St. Louis got a terrific game from center fielder Charlie Scheer. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Baltimore, 7-6. Scheer went 2-2 with a home run, a double, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times. Losses have been rare for the Pilots, who are now 9-2.

Baltimore used the timely hitting of Jackrabbit Hoppe to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Bannermen on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Nothing is scripted in this game," said Hoppe.
