Extra-Inning Win by Black Rifles Over Canaries
The Richmond Black Rifles racked up a win at Ballpark of Saint Louis, bumping off the Saint Louis Canaries, 5-4, in 11 innings. Wild Dan Johnston, who started for Richmond, pitched effectively for his team. Bobby Gay, who led the GNL in saves with 7 in 1909, nailed down the save. The win puts Richmond at 2-2.

Richmond used the timely hitting of Fred Talbott to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Black Rifles on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Saint Louis manager Sam Landers said, following the tough loss.
