Sluggers Win at Home, 5-3
The St Louis Sluggers topped the Cincinnati Stars, 5-3, in Federal action at Busch Stadium. The standout performance belonged to St Louis pitcher and The Woodlands, Texas, native Jameson Taillon. The winning pitcher was Taillon, now 1-0. He tossed 7.1 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 3. St Louis, now 3-0, is setting the league on fire so far.

Lawrence Butler had a big solo home run for the Sluggers in the bottom of the fifth inning. With St Louis leading 2-1 and the bases empty, he sized up a changeup from 27-year old right-handed pitcher Josiah Gray and punished it. The result was his 1st home run of the season, which put the Sluggers on top, 3-1.

"I'm just looking to see the ball, hit the ball," said Butler.
