Miners Win, 11-8, at Detroit
Bob Gaines was a major contributor to the 11-8 Pittsburgh win over Detroit. The Miners catcher went 2-3 with 2 singles and 2 walks, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Hank Cook snagged the win in relief. He goes to 4-7 on the season. Jim Norris suffered the loss. With the win, Pittsburgh upped its record to 60-56.

Had Gaines not come through in the top of the seventh, who knows how the game would've ended? But with two down, Gaines hit a run-scoring single. The Miners took the lead, 6-5, and never looked back.

"We came out aggressive," said Miners manager Harry Barrell. "We came out swinging the bats."
