Explorers Rack Up 4-2 Win Versus Chicago
St. Louis picked up a win at Union Field, bumping off the Chicago Traders, 4-2. Pitcher Jorge Gonzalez was a major reason the Explorers emerged victorious. Bernie Tate earned the save for St. Louis. The Explorers improved their record to 26-25 by beating Chicago.

St. Louis won the game in part because of Tom Adams. The first baseman ripped a solo home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Explorers ahead, 3-1. For the game, Adams had 1 double and 1 home run in 3 at-bats.

"I felt we were ready to go," said St. Louis manager Ray Fleetwood. "Our pregame was pretty good."
