Stars Handle Cincinnati, Snag 8-6 Win
The Indianapolis Stars defeated the Cincinnati Monarchs, 8-6, at Queen City Grounds I. Indianapolis was led by slugging right fielder Jasper Kent, who was 3 for 4 with a double, 2 singles, and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs. Charlie James earned the win. Joe Pappas, who is tied for 5th in the IA with a 2.30 ERA, took the loss for Cincinnati. The Monarchs fall to 7-10 and continue their sputtering start to the 1883 season.

Early in the game, Kent had a run-scoring double for Indianapolis. It was his 2nd double of the season and put the Stars on top, 1-0.

Kent told the Indianapolis Chronicle: "I'm the straw that stirs the drink."
