Bulls Drop Contest, 5-0, to St. Louis
Eager fans turned out for a matchup between the St. Louis Explorers and Kansas City Bulls.

Bruce Cardenas pitched a gem to lead St. Louis to victory over the Kansas City Bulls, 5-0. Robbie Goolsby closed out the game, earning his 5th save.

St. Louis used the timely hitting of Chuck Panetta to capture the win. The left fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Explorers on top, 3-0. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but he made it count.

Panetta said his team "played with determination."

The third-place Explorers have won 4 consecutive games.
