Cardinals Drop Bridegrooms, 8-4
Billy Hamilton left his imprint on the 8-4 St. Louis win against the Brooklyn Bridegrooms. Hamilton, who led the NL in batting average with .360 in 1892, was 4 for 5 with 4 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Dan Sheehan was the winning pitcher. Over 9 innings, he allowed 4 runs on 7 hits, with 4 walks and 4 strikeouts. St. Louis is now 67-53, Brooklyn 54-66.

With no one out in the top of the sixth, Luke Gordon had a chance to do some damage. Brooklyn was trailing 8-2, but had the bases loaded. Gordon came to the plate against Dan Sheehan, and hit a sacrifice fly. But it was not enough to complete a Brooklyn comeback.
