Bears Hammered by Spotsville, Drop Game 1 to Stars
The Kansas City Stars powered past the hometown Memphis Bears, 11-8, in the opener of the League Championship Series at Bears Ballpark today. Kansas City shortstop Charley Spotsville was 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while scoring 4 times and driving in 4, to lead the charge. The Stars now lead the series 1-0.

Kansas City used the clutch hitting of Sylvester Craig to capture the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Stars ahead, 11-8. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a big one.

"Every team in baseball loses," Bears manager Nate Grieb said. "We're in the playoffs and we still have the same guys that got us here. We'll bounce back."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Bears Ballpark in Memphis.
