Pioneers Upend Gothams, 6-2
The St. Louis Pioneers picked up a win at Gotham Stadium, knocking off the New York Gothams, 6-2. Starting pitcher Steve Madden was a big reason why. Madden, who is tied for 6th in the FA in wins with 10, went the distance for St. Louis. He gave up 2 runs on 7 hits. St. Louis is now 66-30, 11 games up in the Federal Association.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Charlie Cooper? The St. Louis first baseman had a run-scoring walk in the top of the fifth inning to put the Pioneers on top, 3-0. For the game, Cooper had 1 double and 2 singles in 3 at-bats.

Cooper attributed the win to "a well-rounded effort by the whole team."
