Stars Down Black Magic, 7-4
John Nelson, who finished 4th in the GSL in wins with 16 in 1913, propelled his team to victory over the Birmingham Black Magic. The final score was 7-4, Kansas City. The Stars have an impressive 22-14 record.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bus Tolliver? The Kansas City center fielder had a bases-clearing double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Stars on top, 5-0. For the game, Tolliver had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I was trying to do what I do, go out there and compete," said Nelson.
