Toronto Rallies for 7-6 Win
Charlie Scheer had a good game, but he could not keep the St. Louis Pilots from falling, 7-6, to the Toronto Provincials at Fuchs Park. The St. Louis center fielder was 2 for 4 with a double and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 in the loss. Fred Brody, the winning pitcher, improved to 21-16. He pitched 8 innings, giving up 6 hits and 6 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 7. At 61-50, the Provincials claim 4th place in the International Association.

An inflection point occurred with one out in the top of the ninth. That's when Provincials first baseman Henry Clancy hit a changeup from Will James for a 2-run single. Just like that, Toronto was up, 7-6.

"Good team win," Clancy said. "I love it when a plan comes together."
