| Millers Victorious at Los Angeles, 4-3 | The Minneapolis Millers did just enough to sneak past the Los Angeles Suns, 4-3, at Wilshire Park. Minneapolis pitcher Joe McDowell, in particular, had a standout performance. The win gives Minneapolis a record of 12-10.
Julio Castaneda, who is tied for 10th in the FA in home runs with 3, had a direct impact on the outcome. Castaneda contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put Minneapolis up, 3-0.
"I just trusted my stuff," said McDowell. | |
