Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the Kansas City Athletics and Minneapolis Vikings.

The Kansas City Athletics picked up a win at Minneapolis Grounds, knocking off the Minneapolis Vikings, 4-3. Starting pitcher Gerald Tanton played a key role in the triumph. The Vikings fall to 9-12 and continue their wobbly start to the 2080 season.

Keith Schilling, who is tied for 6th in the WC in triples with 1, had a direct impact on the outcome. Schilling contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fourth inning to put Kansas City up, 2-1.

Kansas City manager Joe Monagle was pleased with the team's effort. "It was just a good, gutsy performance by everybody," he said.
