| Provincials Lose, 5-3, as Pilots Rally | The St. Louis Pilots picked up a win at Fuchs Park, knocking off the Toronto Provincials, 5-3. Starting pitcher Bill Silvers played a key role in the triumph. At 25-50, the Pilots are currently last in the International Association.
The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Steve Kent came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Toronto pitcher George Ward, he hit a 1-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting St. Louis on top, 4-3.
"If I do my job, we've usually got a good chance to win the game," said Kent.
