Pilots Beat Tigers, 11-8
The St. Louis Pilots spoiled a good performance by Montreal third baseman Crab Shelton, bumping off Montreal, 11-8, at Fuchs Park. Shelton was 3-5 with a triple and a double, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The winning pitcher was Ajax McFadden. He tossed 153 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 8 runs on 10 hits. The Pilots raised their record to 60-17.

In the bottom of the 6th, right fielder Bulldog Ayers gave St. Louis the lead when he hit a 2-run single. The Pilots had been trailing 6-5, but the two-out single off Montreal pitcher John Babbitt changed that -- and St. Louis went on to win.

"It all comes down to competing and our guys love to compete," said Pilots manager .
