St. Louis Stopped, 3-0, by Chicago
|
Chicago Traders pitcher Skip Crawford was in top form, leading his team past the St. Louis Explorers, 3-0. Crawford, now 16-10, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 2 hits, while striking out 6, walking 2, and allowing no runs. The first-place Traders, at 98-63, lead the National Baseball League Western Division by 8½ games.
The Traders got a big at-bat from right fielder Ron Byrd. For the game, Byrd was 1-4 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the third, with a runner on 2nd, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 12th home run of the season gave Chicago a 2-0 lead.
Byrd called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
