Gothams Win, 9-1, Versus Miners
The rain did not keep New York and Pittsburgh from finishing their game.

New York Gothams pitcher Hal Hackney was in fine form, leading his team past the Pittsburgh Miners, 9-1. In 9 innings, Hackney surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 2 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run.

Red Johnson, who led the FA in home runs with 52 in 1949, contributed to the New York win with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fifth. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 2 RBI.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Johnson.

New York is now 11-5.
