Traders Suffer 6-3 Home Defeat
Starting pitcher Marty Clark pitched well enough to help the St. Louis Explorers beat the Chicago Traders, 6-3. By defeating Chicago, the 6th-place Explorers improved to 18-22.

It could have been a different outcome for St. Louis, had it not been for Charlie Bartels, the 29-year old catcher . Bartels contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put St. Louis up, 4-0.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Bartels told reporters after the game.
