St. Louis drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning scoring 3 runs on 2 base hits. Ned Cuthbert started the inning off right when he smacked a single. Two outs later Mike McGeary stepped up to the plate and he reached on an error. Lip Pike then drew a walk. Joe Battin came up and he reached on an error which brought home a run. Joe Blong stepped into the box and reached on an error plating another run. Bradley added to the rally and reached on an error scoring the final run of the inning. That was all the offense they were to need. Hartford tried unsuccessfully to come back in the 9th. The victory went to Bradley(26-8) who went the distance allowing 2 runs. Tommy Bond(17-12) absorbed the loss. He surrendered only 4 runs and 5 hits in 8 innings.
