Monarchs Drop Stars, 5-4
The Kansas City Monarchs defeated the Philadelphia Stars, 5-4. Center Fielder Willie McGee deserved a large share of the credit. McGee went 3 for 5 with a triple and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for the Monarchs. Jeff Pfeffer got the save, the 11th for him this season. With the victory, the Monarchs upped their record to 30-22.

McGee had a game-changing double in the top of the seventh. On a 1-2 curveball from Larry Jackson, he banged a run-scoring double to left, giving the Monarchs a 5-4 lead. It was the 15th double of the year for McGee.

In postgame comments to the Kansas City Today, McGee said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
