St. Louis registered a win at Fuchs Park by beating the Cleveland Clippers, 6-5. Pitcher Zebulon Eldridge was one reason why the Pilots triumphed. In 9 innings, Eldridge surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 1 and walking 3. He allowed 5 runs. The slumping Clippers have lost 7 straight.

The game was all tied up in the bottom of the eighth, until Eldridge delivered big-time for St. Louis, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Dan Hicks. The game-changing hit put the Pilots on top, 6-5.

Said losing manager : "The only way to escape your past is to be better than your past."
