Almost There: St. Louis On Cusp of Round 1 Triumph After 9-5 Win
Riding the 2-hit performance of left fielder John Tennison, the St. Louis Pilots stopped the visiting Louisville Colts, 9-5, in Game 4 of the Round 1. Tennison went 2-3 with a triple and 2 walks, while scoring 2 runs for the Pilots, who now lead the best-of-7 series, 3 games to 1.

Making an impact for St. Louis was pitcher Ajax McFadden. The Scholar drilled a run-scoring double off Kip Hereford in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, McFadden threw 9.0 innings allowing 5 runs.

"We lost," Louisville manager said later. "We'll deal with it. The series isn't over."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Fuchs Park in St. Louis.
