St. Louis Earns 5-4 Win
The St. Louis Gaedels weathered an outstanding game by Cincinnati center fielder Tim Champion to topple the Twins, 5-4. Champion was 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The defeat makes Cincinnati 64-72.

The decisive blow was delivered by Atsunori Aoyama in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a solo home run off 28-year old right-handed pitcher Ernie Martinez to win the game for St. Louis. The home crowd went nuts.

St. Louis manager Mak Dolnick commended his team for "doing what it takes to win."
