| Miners Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Suns, 5-2 | Ted Mickiewicz, who is tied for 10th in the FA with a 3.25 ERA, propelled his team to victory over the Los Angeles Suns. The final score was 5-2, Pittsburgh. In 7.2 innings, Mickiewicz surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. Earning his 16th save of the year was Manny Espinosa.
The result might have been different, had it not been for 23-year old center fielder Roy McGee. McGee had a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Miners ahead, 3-2. For the game, McGee had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"Ted showed what he's made of," said Pittsburgh manager Harry Barrell.
The win for the Miners lifted their record to 55-44.
