Jeff Madsen was a major factor in the 4-2 Chicago win over St. Louis. The Traders left fielder went 3-4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Larry Cox got the win, improving to 6-6. He held the Explorers to 2 runs on 3 hits over 5 innings, while striking out 3 and walking 4. Jimmy Calhoun was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 22 of 27 save opportunities.

Madsen contributed a big hit, a 2-run home run, for Chicago in the bottom of the fourth. With his team trailing 2-1, Madsen took a fastball from Ken Morrison and stroked the home run to right-center. His 13th home run of the season allowed the Traders to leap in front, 3-2.

Said losing manager Ray Fleetwood: "The at-bats, obviously, needed to be better."

The third-place Traders have won 5 straight games.
