The Indianapolis ABCs stormed past the Kansas City Monarchs, 13-5, at Crosley Field. Indianapolis third basemanEd Charles led the hit parade. He went 4 for 4 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. Luis Padrón, the winning pitcher, improved to 2-0. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 5 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 8 and walking 1. The win puts Indianapolis at 10-8.

Luis Padrón had a big 2-run double for the ABCs in the bottom of the first inning. With Indianapolis leading 3-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from 26-year old right-handed pitcher Bob Gibson and swatted a double to left. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the ABCs ahead, 5-0.

"We lit up the scoreboard," said Indianapolis manager Daniel Makonnen.
