The Pittsburgh Miners downed the Minneapolis Millers, 7-1, at Hennepin County Stadium. The Miners were led by Frank Selander. Selander went 3-4 with a triple, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times. The Pittsburgh winning streak has reached 3 games.

Pittsburgh third baseman Clay Waters contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fourth. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 13th hit of the season and put the Miners ahead, 2-1.

"I think it just wasn't our night," said Minneapolis skipper Frank Vance.
