St. Louis 71-45 After 9-3 Victory
The St. Louis Pioneers topped the Chicago Chiefs, 9-3, at Whitney Park. St. Louis second baseman Bob Bell was a spark plug for the offense. He went 2-5 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 5. The second-place Pioneers improved to 71-45.

Bell had a key at-bat for St. Louis in the top of the first. With a runner on 1st, he hit a 2-run home run. It was his 29th home run of the season and gave St. Louis an early 2-0 lead.

"There's losing your stroke and finding your stroke," said Bell. "I guess I've found mine."
