River Walkers news: Sept. 30 -- Kansas City 1, St. Louis 0, 10 innings
Kansas City's Joey Gallo led off the bottom of the 10th inning with a solo home run off St. Louis reliever Jerry Blevins, giving the Pit Masters a 1-0 win in both teams' final game of the regular season in Kansas City.
River Walkers starting pitcher Trevor Bauer tossed six shutout innings, allowing just two hits but did not get any support as his offense registered what was probably a season-high 17 strikeouts.
The loss marked the fourth time the Walkers have been shutout this season, and they will close the regular season on a five-game losing streak.
Anyway, the River Walkers did end the regular season with a record of 106-56, which was 14 games better than Indianapolis, which won the AL West, and Springfield, which finished second behind the Walkers in the NL South.
