Pivotal Game 5 Goes to Host Explorers, 3-2
The St. Louis Explorers moved to within one game of the Round 2 today, downing the Brooklyn Bluebirds 3-2 in a low-scoring, extra-inning affair at Castle Point Field. Leading the way for the Explorers was left-hander Pinkney Quinlan, who was named player of the game after he threw 11 innings allowing 2 runs. The win gives the Explorers a 3-2 advantage in the best-of-7 World Series.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 11th inning, when St. Louis catcher Morris Close, facing Clay Baldwin, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Explorers the 3-2 win.

"Good win for us, tough loss for them," said Close.

Game 6 is set to be played Tuesday at Flatbush Park. Slated to start are Hampton Bunker for St. Louis and Hermann Logan for Brooklyn.
