Detroit Defeated by St. Louis, 7-2
St. Louis registered a win at Thompson Field by beating the Detroit Dynamos, 7-2. Pitcher Steve Madden was one reason why the Pioneers triumphed. Madden, who is tied for 6th in the FA in quality starts with 18, went the distance for St. Louis. He gave up 2 runs on 7 hits. The Pioneers sit in first place in the Federal Association with a record of 78-49.

St. Louis used the clutch hitting of Jerry Smith to snag the win. The left fielder drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Pioneers ahead, 5-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a crucial one.

"I expect to pitch a complete game every time out," said Madden.
