Monarchs Claim 9-8 Triumph
The Cincinnati Monarchs beat the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 9-8, in part because of third baseman Jerry Stevens. He went 3-4 with 3 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Joe Pappas, the winner, is now 30-15. He struck out 1 and walked 2 over 8 innings, while allowing 8 runs on 14 hits. Gary Meacham closed the door for Cincinnati, picking up his 3rd save of the year.

Steve Gould went 2 for 4 with a double. He drove in 2 runs against the Vulcans. With the game tied in the top of the sixth inning, he hit a 2-run single that put Cincinnati in front, 5-3.

"It wasn't a pretty victory," said Stevens, "but we got it done."

Their 37-38 record puts the Monarchs 6th in the International Association.
