Minneapolis and New York took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

The Minneapolis Millers torpedoed the New York Gothams at Gotham Stadium. The final score was 5-2, Minneapolis. George Fisher went 2-for-3 for the winning team. Ben Baird locked down his 11th save.

Making an impact for Minneapolis was catcher Julio Castaneda. He drilled a double off Harry Hayward in the top of the fifth. For the game, Castaneda was 1 for 3 with a double and 2 walks.

"Our offense was purring," said Minneapolis manager Harry Hammond. "Like a well-oiled machine."

The Gothams, now 25-28, have lost 4 in a row.
