Pilots Fall Short at Cincinnati, 5-4
The Cincinnati Monarchs picked up a win at Queen City Grounds II, knocking off the St. Louis Pilots, 5-4. On the mound for Cincinnati was right-hander Tom Bell. He played a key role in the triumph. Bell, who finished 4th in the FL in innings pitched with 407.0 in 1882, went the distance for Cincinnati. He gave up 4 runs on 9 hits. Cincinnati has a record of 5-7.

Up to bat in the bottom of the ninth, 36-year old right fielder Jason Curtis had a chance to be the hero. St. Louis pitcher Ajax McFadden wanted to foil that plan. But with one out, Curtis reached on an error by the SS, driving in 2 runs. The Monarchs had themselves a thrilling win.

"I felt good up there," said Curtis. "I saw the ball well."
