The St. Louis Explorers took on the Denver Burros at Gates Crescent Park.

Starting pitcher Tommy Phillips was a major factor in the 4-1 St. Louis Explorers triumph over the Denver Burros. Phillips yielded 1 run over 7.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 2 hits, walked 4, and struck out 7. His record improves to 5-4. Marty Clark was credited with the save for St. Louis, his 3rd of the season.

Fernando Najera had a direct impact on the outcome. Najera contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put St. Louis up, 1-0.

"It never gets old," said Najera. "Winning, that is."

The win puts St. Louis at 38-56.
