Black Barons Suffer 5-3 Loss to Kansas City
The Kansas City Monarchs started the 2001 season win an impressive 5-3 win against the Birmingham Black Barons at Muehlebach Field 1923-1941. Luke Hamlin led the way for Kansas City.

Kansas City took a 4-3 lead on Stan Musial's 1st double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Musial hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Birmingham pitcher Vic Willis visibly frustrated.

Kansas City manager Daniel Makonnen praised his team's "businesslike approach."
