Denver Decked, 4-2, by Explorers
The St. Louis Explorers racked up a win at Gates Crescent Park, bumping off the Denver Burros, 4-2. Jorge Gonzalez, who started for St. Louis, pitched effectively for his team. Tommie Jones recorded the save for St. Louis, his 1st of the season. St. Louis, now 18-12, has gotten their season off to a good start.

St. Louis used the timely hitting of Fernando Martinez to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Explorers on top, 4-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Said losing manager Clark Anderson: "Give the Explorers credit. They played a better game than we did."
