"We're happy," Coon told reporters after the win. "When you're in the playoffs, you've got to treat every game like it could be your last."

The next game is scheduled for tomorrow in St. Louis. Slated to start are Clay Baldwin for the Brooklyn Bluebirds and Pinkney Quinlan for the the St. Louis Explorers.
