Pilcher went 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Alex Vaughan finished to wrap up his 2nd save. Pittsburgh is last in the Federal Association with a record of 45-68.

Roy Snedden was 2-5 with 2 singles and a walk against the Gothams. With the game tied in the top of the 12th inning, he grounded out, driving in 1 run that put Pittsburgh in front, 5-4.

"The game is never over 'til it's over," said a jubilant Clyde Mathews, the Pittsburgh skipper.
