Traders Win, 3-2, at St. Louis
Chicago pitcher Dennis Strzelczyk had a large part in his team subduing the St. Louis Explorers, 3-2. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the left-hander. In 7.1 innings, Strzelczyk surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 2. He allowed 2 runs. The second-place Traders hiked their record to 32-29.

With Chicago leading 2-0 in the top of the fourth, Strzelczyk hit a run-scoring single off St. Louis hurler Pedro Juarez. It was the 1st hit of the season for Strzelczyk and put his team ahead, 3-0.

"Bottom line," said St. Louis skipper Ray Fleetwood, "we didn't play well enough to win."
