Miners Improve to 6-5 with 14-7 Win
The Pittsburgh Miners stopped the Detroit Dynamos, 14-7, at Thompson Field. The Miners got a big game from Dave Price, who went 1-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. The winner in relief was Bob Haverhill. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2.2 innings. He now owns a record of 1-0. Frank Maxwell picked up his 1st save of the season.

Price contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Pittsburgh in the top of the fifth. With his team trailing 7-4, Price took a slider from Earl Shields and stroked the home run to right. His 2nd home run of the season allowed the Miners to leap in front, 8-7.

"We got the victory," said Price. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."

Pittsburgh now has a record of 6-5.
