Explorers Rally to Nose Past San Diego
Riding the 4-hit performance of the 25-year old first baseman Adam Voeller, the St. Louis Explorers stopped the San Diego Captains, 3-2, in 9 innings. Bernie Tate got credit for the win, improving to 2-0. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. The win puts St. Louis at 2-1.

Voeller had a game-changing double in the top of the ninth. On a 2-2 cutter from Jack DeWitt, he banged a run-scoring double to center, giving the Explorers a 3-2 lead. It was the 1st double of the year for Voeller.

"We had the right guys up at the right times," said San Diego manager Joe Mack. "We just didn't cash in."
