| Millers Victors, 3-1, at Philadelphia | In a low-scoring clash between Minneapolis and Philadelphia, pitcher Bill Smith was a difference-maker. The right-hander earned praise for his performance in the 3-1 Millers win. Bobby Crooks claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 1.1 innings. His record stands at 1-6. The triumph makes Minneapolis 9-37.
Minneapolis won the game in part because of Art Starling. The first baseman ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Millers ahead, 3-1. For the game, Starling had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.
"Winning never gets dull," said Starling.
