The Pittsburgh Miners got production up and down the lineup while beating the Minneapolis Millers, 18-3. One standout was catcher Bob Gaines. Gaines was 2 for 3 with 2 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 4. Pittsburgh starter Ted Mickiewicz was credited with the win after throwing 134 pitches over 9 innings. His record now stands at 5-3. Pittsburgh has now won 3 in a row.

Roy McGee's at-bat in the bottom of the second inning was a big one for Pittsburgh. Coming to bat with one out, runners on 1st and 2nd and Pittsburgh trailing 2-0, the center fielder hit a run-scoring single.

"It's the best feeling when you come through for your teammates," said Gaines.
