Pioneers Lose, 8-6, as Gothams Rally
The New York Gothams defeated the St. Louis Pioneers, 8-6, at Gotham Stadium. New York second baseman Billy Woytek had a superb performance. He was 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 4 runs and drove in 2. Dick Lamb, now 4-2, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. New York is now 32-32, St. Louis 26-41.

The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for New York. That's when Walt Messer hit a 2-run home run off six-time All-Star Lee Richardson to win the game. The home crowd went wild.

"Sometimes you get the ball in the right spot and it goes," said Woytek.
