Pro Circuit Cup Game 1 Goes to St. Louis, Thanks to Xú
The St. Louis Lions started the Pro Circuit Cup in style, downing the visiting El Paso Diablos at The Lions Hearth by a score of 5-3 to grab an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Lions left fielder Cheng-ji Xú went 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

Matt Weber dealt the Diablos a blow in the bottom of the fifth. Batting with a runner on 1st and St. Louis leading 3-2, Weber, who finished 3rd in the PBC in OPS with 1.035 in 2014, hit a first pitch splitter for a run-scoring triple.

Weber said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at The Lions Hearth in St. Louis.
