Provincials Win, 5-4, Versus St. Louis | Toronto registered a win at Fuchs Park by beating the St. Louis Pilots, 5-4. Pitcher George Ward was one reason why the Provincials triumphed. The 4th-place Provincials improved to 59-54.
Toronto used a timely hit from Doc McGuire to get the win. The shortstop stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Provincials ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it made an impact.
"You need to show up when your number's called," said McGuire. | | | | |
