Brahmins Defeated, 6-5, After St. Louis Rallies
Boston right fielder Jim Strouse had a good game, even if his team did not. The Brahmins dropped a 6-5 decision to St. Louis at Fuchs Park. Strouse went 3-3 with 3 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The first-place Pilots, at 69-23, lead the International Association by 13½ games.

Charlie Scheer, who is tied for 7th in the IA with a .319 batting average, came through for St. Louis with a 2-run double in the bottom of the eighth. The center fielder went 2 for 4 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 1 run and collected 3 RBI.

"We all want to win," said Scheer. "We all want to do our part."
