The Kansas City Stars eked out a 3-2 win versus the Birmingham Black Magic at Black Magic Ballpark. Nobody did more than pitcher Robert Bright. He was terrific. Bright picked up the win for Kansas City, going 8 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 4 hits. He now sports a record of 5-4. With the win, Kansas City raised its record to 21-14.

James Beal, who finished 4th in the GSL in OPS with .844 in 1911, had a direct impact on the outcome. Beal contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the third inning to put Kansas City up, 2-1.

"I tried to mix it up, keep them off balance," said Bright.
