| 8-2 Win Makes It 6 Straight for Pilots | The rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of St. Louis fans at Fuchs Park.
The 3-hit performance of Travis Krupp, who is tied for 8th in the IA in home runs with 1, helped the St. Louis Pilots beat the Cincinnati Monarchs, 8-2. Zebulon Eldridge picked up the win, improving his season record to 13-2. He struck out 0 in 9 innings.
Ajax McFadden had a big 2-run home run for the Pilots in the bottom of the third inning. With St. Louis leading 1-0 and a runner on 3rd, he sized up a slider from Norm Mason, who finished 2nd in the FL in stolen bases with 23 in 1880, and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Pilots on top, 3-0.
"We'll need a much better effort, the next time out," said losing manager .
Cincinnati, at 21-19, has lost 5 straight.
