The Louisville Colonels topped the St. Louis Browns, 12-9, with youngster Sammy Strang playing a key role. Strang went 4 for 5 with a double and 3 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Colonels in the win. Louisville is first in the American League with a record of 32-16.

Tom McCreery dealt the Browns a blow in the bottom of the fifth. Batting with the bases loaded and Louisville trailing 5-4, McCreery, who is tied for 5th in the AL with a .434 on-base percentage, hit a 1-1 fastball for a 2-run single.

"We came out aggressive," said Colonels manager Pete Treacey. "We came out swinging the bats."
