Stars Use Late Score to Top Black Rifles, 3-2
The Kansas City Stars beat the Richmond Black Rifles, 3-2, in 10 innings. Kansas City pitcher and Yakima, Washington, native Eddie Houston led the way. With the win, Kansas City goes to 21-20, while the Black Rifles fall to 20-19.

Up to bat in the bottom of the tenth, slugging right fielder James Beal had a chance to be the hero. Richmond pitcher Fred Ross wanted to foil that plan. But with one out, Beal hit a sacrifice fly. The Stars had themselves a thrilling win.

Kansas City manager Tommy Ormes called it "a pretty good win."
