Ed Wall earned player of the game honors, as he went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice. St. Louis now trails New York 3-2 in the best-of-7 affair.

Hawk Flood's hit in the top of the tenth was a game-changer. With one out, he rapped a fastball from Marcellus Bridgeman for a run-scoring single. It put St. Louis in front, 7-6.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said St. Louis skipper .

Game 6 is scheduled for Tuesday at Castle Point Field. Slated to start are Edgar Blaney for the New York Knickerbockers and Brock Rutherford for the the St. Louis Explorers.
