| McFadden Swings Pilots to 4-3 Win | St. Louis beat Baltimore at Fuchs Park, eking out a 4-3 win. The triumph was primarily due to right fielder Ajax McFadden. He went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. The win for the Pilots raised their record to 74-43.
Charles Russell drove in one run for St. Louis. With one out and the game tied in the bottom of the seventh inning, Russell, who is on pace for 43 RBI this season, had a clutch at-bat. Facing Baltimore hurler Hugh Brigand, he hit a sacrifice fly to give the Pilots a 4-3 lead.
"Nice, tidy little win," McFadden said after the game. | | | | |
