Both pitching staffs took a bruising at Garrison Common Grounds, but St. Louis pitcher Bulldog Ayers had enough success to help the Pilots top the Toronto Provincials, 11-10. St. Louis now sports a record of 25-15.

In the top of the fourth, St. Louis second baseman John Heyward had a productive at-bat. With runners on 2nd and 3rd and no one out, Heyward stroked a 2-run single to right-center. It made the score 11-0, St. Louis. For the game, he was 2 for 5 with 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs.

"Bulldog was dictating to their hitters," said St. Louis manager .
