Canaries Suffer One-Run Loss at Memphis
The Memphis Bears picked up a win at Bears Ballpark, knocking off the Saint Louis Canaries, 5-4. On the mound for Memphis was right-hander Willie Howard. He played a key role in the triumph. Today's win puts Memphis at 14-16, while Saint Louis falls to 17-15.

Charles Saunders had a big bases-clearing double for the Bears in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Memphis leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 22-year old right-handed pitcher Doc Harris and swatted a double to right-center. It was his 5th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Bears ahead, 4-0.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Saunders.
