Millers Win at New York, 6-1
The New York Gothams had to reckon with Minneapolis Millers hurler Don Hillshire. Hillshire, who is tied for 10th in the FA in quality starts with 12, overwhelmed the opposition in the 6-1 Millers triumph. The winning pitcher was Hillshire, now 9-7. He tossed 8 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 6. The victory puts Minneapolis at 46-74.

Minneapolis used the hitting of Cecil Cummings to pick up the win. The shortstop clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Millers on top, 3-0. For the game, Cummings had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"I executed the game plan," said Hillshire.
