Explorers Victors, 5-4, at Los Angeles
The St. Louis Explorers beat the Los Angeles Blockbusters, 5-4, in part because of catcher Jack O'Neil. He was 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Willie Purter earned the win, while 34-year old right-handed pitcher George Jakubowski took the loss for Los Angeles. St. Louis goes to 4-5.

Early in the game, O'Neil had a 2-run home run for St. Louis. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Explorers on top, 5-3.

"Hustle and hard work is a big part of our success," said O'Neil. "Those qualities define our team."
