Cleveland Absorbs 8-6 Loss to St. Louis
The St. Louis Explorers weathered an outstanding game by Cleveland right fielder Steve Garcia to topple the Bobcats, 8-6. Garcia went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Bob Trout, the winner, improved to 12-1. He held the Bobcats to 6 runs on 5 hits over 5.2 innings, while striking out 1 and walking 4. The setback makes Cleveland 38-33.

Bob Trout had a key at-bat with two out in the top of the fifth for St. Louis. With the bases loaded and the Explorers leading 3-2, he drew a walk, driving in 1 run.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Trout said.
