Pilots Cut Down Monarchs, 7-3
The St. Louis Pilots topped the Cincinnati Monarchs, 7-3, in International Association action at Queen City Grounds II. The standout performance belonged to St. Louis pitcher and Cowdenbeath, Scotland, native Ajax McFadden. St. Louis is now 77-26, Cincinnati 57-50.

St. Louis used a well-timed hit by Charlie Scheer to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Pilots ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"Good, blue-collar kind of win," said Pilots manager .
