Miners Win Thriller, 6-4
The Pittsburgh Miners beat the Detroit Dynamos, 6-4, at Fitzpatrick Park. The Miners got a fine performance from left fielder Mike Whisman, who went 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 2 times. At 18-19, the Miners are currently 6th in the Federal Association.

Pittsburgh got a knockout punch from Dixie Turner. The second baseman hammered a grand slam home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"Solid performance from our side," said Miners manager Harry Barrell.
