Explorers Stay Hot, Beat Blockbusters, 3-1
The St. Louis Explorers beat the Los Angeles Blockbusters, 3-1, at Corps of Discovery Stadium. Starting pitcher Dave Gilson was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. Gilson picked up the win for St. Louis, going 8 innings. He gave up 1 run on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 4-2. Los Angeles has now lost 4 consecutive games.

The outcome was still in doubt with two out in the top of the fourth inning, but Gilson was able to pitch out of a jam. With runners on 1st and 3rd and Los Angeles trailing 1-0, Gilson retired Fernando Lopez, who struck out.
