Stars Get One-Run Win at New York
The Indianapolis Stars besoiled an otherwise fine performance by New York right fielder Ben Turner by beating the Black Kings, 7-6, at Kings Ballpark. Turner went 1-3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Indianapolis pitcher Tank Burgee got the win. He's now 3-0. Willie DeMoss was tagged with the loss. Ted Rollins picked up the save for Indianapolis, his 3rd of the year.

Indianapolis used a timely hit from Joe Roberts to get the win. The first baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Stars ahead, 7-6. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We took home the win," said Roberts. "What's not to like?"

The Black Kings, now 3-11, continue their slow start.
