Minneapolis Wins, Denny goes 3-for-4
The Minneapolis Millers topped the New York Gothams by a score of 8-4. Leading the way was center fielder Walt Denny. Denny was 3 for 4 with a home run, a triple, and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 4 for the Millers. Minneapolis pitcher John Stallings got the win, upping his record to 3-3. Red Blanchard got the loss. The Millers raised their record to 36-58.

Minneapolis left fielder Dick Sheehan contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With two down, he hit a slider to right field for a 2-run single. It was his 118th hit of the season and put the Millers ahead, 5-2.

"If I do my job, we've usually got a good chance to win the game," said Denny.
