Stars Win, 4-2, at Birmingham
The Kansas City Stars knocked off the Birmingham Black Magic, 4-2, in Great Southern action at Black Magic Ballpark. Kansas City pitcher and Boston, Massachusetts, native Joe Moore had an outstanding performance. Moore yielded 2 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 10 hits, walked 1, and struck out 5. His record improves to 1-3. Kansas City, now 5-8, is off to a slow start.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Tom Smith to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Stars on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We did a lot of really good things and it was a good win," said Stars manager Tommy Ormes.
