Archies Edge Past Cossacks, 8-7
The St. Louis Archies beat the Kyiv Cossacks, 8-7, in 10 innings at Kyiv Grounds. St. Louis designated hitter Juan Mercado had an outstanding performance. He hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3. The Archies, at 97-54, have a comfortable 14-game lead in their division.

St. Louis won the game in part because of Brian Cifelli. The first baseman ripped a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Archies ahead, 8-7. For the game, Cifelli had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

Cifelli told the St. Louis Herald: "Don't care what other people think. Brian knows who Brian is."
