Pilots Use Late Rally to Win 6th Straight
Charlie Scheer, who finished 5th in the IA in wins above replacement with 5.2 in 1885, led St. Louis to a win over Cleveland. The final score was 7-4. The center fielder collected 3 extra-base hits, including 1 triple and 2 doubles. He also delivered 1 RBI. St. Louis pitcher Bulldog Ayers got the win, upping his record to 13-3. Dan Hicks got the loss. St. Louis has run its win streak to 6 in a row.

St. Louis used the timely hitting of Jasper Hines to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Pilots on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"There were things that we could've improved upon," said Pilots manager , "but all in all, I'm satisfied with our performance."
