Stars Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Black Rifles, 5-2
The Kansas City Stars got a marvelous performance from pitcher John Nelson. The right-hander kept the Richmond offense from ever getting much traction. The result was an impressive 5-2 Kansas City victory at Black Rifles Ballpark. The winner was Nelson. He threw 8.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Wild Dan Johnston. Kansas City is now 39-37.

Had Bill Hairston not 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, Hairston hit a 2-run single. That made the score 4-2, in favor of the Stars.

"It was a solid team effort," said Hairston after the game.
