Miners Smoke Gothams, 18-2
The Pittsburgh Miners embarrassed the New York Gothams, 18-2. Joe Loyd was one of the hitting stars. He went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and 2 walks, while scoring 4 times and driving in 2. The winning pitcher was 30-year old left-handed pitcher Charlie Todd. He tossed 103 pitches over 6.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 7 hits. The Miners saw their win-loss record go to 63-45. At the same time, the Gothams fell to 52-52.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Ernie Campbell? The Pittsburgh center fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Miners on top, 3-0. For the game, Campbell had 1 double and 2 singles in 7 at-bats.

"That game went belly up quickly," said losing manager Ad Doria.
