Round 1 Game 1 Victory for James and St. Louis
The St. Louis Pilots started the Round 1 in style, downing the visiting Louisville Colts at Fuchs Park by a score of 7-3 to stake an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Pilots right-hander Will James threw 9.0 innings allowing 3 runs.

Had Charlie Scheer not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Scheer hit a run-scoring double. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Pilots.

"There was a kid in the stands with a sign that said 'St. Louis Pilots (probably) 1888 Round 1 Champions'," James told reporters after the game. "I told him, 'Premature, but I like the confidence.'"

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