Stars Win at Home, 3-1
In a low-scoring tilt between the Kansas City Stars and the Saint Louis Canaries, John Nelson, who is tied for 4th in the GSL in wins with 6, was the difference-maker. The Kansas City right-hander spearheaded the 3-1 win. Nelson, who is tied for 10th in the GSL in strikeouts with 29, went the distance for Kansas City. He gave up 1 run on 10 hits. The last-place Canaries now sit at 13-22.

Had Ollie Haynes delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Haynes grounded out. The score remained 3-1, Kansas City, and the Stars were out of the jam.
