Pilots Nipped, 1-0, by New York
The New York Excelsiors got a superb performance from pitcher Thomas Goss, who shut out the St. Louis Pilots, 1-0. The Excelsiors raised their record to 53-39.

Goss, the starting pitcher for New York, like a boss, imposed his will. The right-hander, who finished 3rd in the FL in strikeouts with 168 in 1882, racked up 9 Ks, while allowing just 3 hits. Opposing hitters had trouble making good contact.

"Not too many highlights on our side," said losing manager .
