The Pittsburgh Miners topped the New York Gothams, 7-1, in Federal Association action at Gotham Stadium. The standout performance belonged to Pittsburgh pitcher and Coventry, Rhode Island, native Hank Griswold. In 9 innings, Griswold surrendered 9 hits, while striking out 10 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. The win gives Pittsburgh a season record of 26-25.

Pittsburgh used the hitting of Dixie Turner to pick up the win. The second baseman clubbed a run-scoring single in the top of the second inning to put the Miners on top, 2-0. For the game, Turner had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"I had my mind made up to go the distance," said Griswold.
