Eager fans turned out for a matchup between the St. Louis Pioneers and Philadelphia Keystones.

The timely hitting of Bill Bather helped the St. Louis Pioneers down the Philadelphia Keystones, 11-3. Bather was 4 for 5 with 2 home runs, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 4 for the Pioneers. Billy Hasson, the winning pitcher, improved to 17-7. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 10 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 6 and walking 1.

Bather contributed a big hit, a 2-run home run, for St. Louis in the top of the third. With his team trailing 1-0, Bather took a changeup from Jorge Arellano and stroked the home run to center. His 20th home run of the season allowed the Pioneers to leap in front, 2-1.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Bather said. "We did a good job of that today."

The Pioneers are now 86-55, while the Keystones fall to 87-54.
