Bulls Pick Up 4-1 Win Over St. Louis
Kansas City Bulls pitcher Paul Geary was in top form, leading his team past the St. Louis Explorers, 4-1. The winner was Geary. He threw 8.0 innings of 6-hit ball. The loser was Scot Benjamin. Dennis Dixon was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 2 of 3 save opportunities.

Kansas City won the game in part because of Hal Lahr. The center fielder ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Bulls ahead, 2-0. For the game, Lahr had 2 doubles and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Lahr told a Kansas City Gazette reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."

Kansas City, with the win, is 50-102.
