In a low-scoring tilt between the St. Louis Pilots and the Kansas City Prairie Dogs, Bulldog Ayers, who is tied for 2nd in the IA in RBI with 21, was the difference-maker. The St. Louis right-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. The Prairie Dogs, now 7-24, have lost 4 straight.

Farmer Eustis had a direct impact on the outcome. Eustis contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put St. Louis up, 3-2.

"For the most part, I stayed out of the middle of the plate," Ayers said.
