Road Win Lifts St. Louis to 3-2 Lead in World Series
The St. Louis Explorers have a critical edge over the Brooklyn Bluebirds in the World Series, thanks to the veteran arm of Edgar Bath.

Bath, 31, put on a dominant performance at Flatbush Park today, leading the Explorers to victory, 1-0, in a pivotal Game 5. St. Louis is now one game away from the World Series, leading the best-of-7 series by a margin of 3-2. Brooklyn will need to win both remaining games to advance.

Bath, who was born in Boston, Massachusetts, threw 100 pitches over 9 innings, while allowing no earned runs.

"I had everything working," said Bath.

The next game is set to be played Tuesday, October 16th, 1923 at Castle Point Field in St. Louis. The scheduled starters for the game are Tuck Harrold for the Brooklyn Bluebirds and Brock Rutherford for the the St. Louis Explorers.
