Marshall Powers Prairie Dogs to 9-7 Win
The Kansas City Prairie Dogs beat the Cincinnati Monarchs, 9-7, with major props going to catcher Bob Marshall. On the day, Marshall went 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Prairie Dogs. Marty Birch picked up the win, lifting his record to 3-3 on the season. He struck out 2 and walked 2 in 6.2 innings, while yielding 7 runs. With the win, the Prairie Dogs are 13-33.

The Prairie Dogs benefited from an error in the bottom of the third inning. Kansas City was leading 3-2 when Tommy Cate hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put Kansas City in front, 5-2.

Marshall said, "Whether you hit the ball hard, you walk, you have a long at-bat, 10 or 12 pitches, or you hit a homer, you're just trying to do anything you can do to help the team win."
