The St. Louis Pioneers scored a convincing win at Whitney Park, defeating the Chicago Chiefs, 17-3. One of the hitting stars was Jerry Smith, who finished 5th in the CA in OPS with .938 in 1955, who went 3 for 5 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 4 times and driving in 4. Billy Hasson picked up the win, improving his season record to 13-2. He struck out 7 in 9 innings. St. Louis has an impressive 50-22 record.

With St. Louis leading 11-0 in the top of the fifth, Smith batted against Chicago pitcher Tom Fisher. Smith hit a sinker to right-center for a bases-clearing double. His 11th double of the season put the Pioneers on top, 14-0.

In postgame comments to the St. Louis Daily, Smith said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
