Boston Upended, 11-4, by Pittsburgh
The Pittsburgh Miners defeated the Boston Minutemen, 11-4. Doing his part was shortstop John Moreland, who went 4-4 with 4 singles and a walk. He scored 3 runs. The losing streak for Boston has now reached 5 games.

Bill Newhall had a big 2-run double for the Miners in the bottom of the second inning. With Pittsburgh leading 4-2 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Dick Wilson, who finished 5th in the FA in saves with 16 in 1957, and swatted a double to center. It was his 16th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Miners ahead, 6-2.

"This team's hitting on all cylinders," said Miners manager Clyde Mathews.
