Pilots Drop Brahmins, 11-2
The St. Louis Pilots clipped the Boston Brahmins, 11-2, in 10 innings at Brahmins Grounds. The standout performance belonged to St. Louis pitcher and Lonaconing, Maryland, native Bulldog Ayers. Ayers yielded 2 runs over 10 innings to notch the win. He scattered 8 hits, walked 1, and struck out 2. His record improves to 11-4. St. Louis has won 3 straight, while Boston has lost 3 in a row.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Pierre Martineau came to bat in the top of the tenth. Facing Boston pitcher Peter Gates, he hit a 1-1 sinker for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting St. Louis on top, 4-2.

Boston manager called the blowout loss "a real bummer."
