Whisman Clouts 2 Homers in 8-3 Pittsburgh Win
Behind a fine performance from Mike Whisman, the Pittsburgh Miners knocked off the New York Gothams, 8-3. Whisman was 3-3 with 2 home runs, a double, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice for the Miners. The winning pitcher was Jimmy Blair. He tossed 102 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits. The Gothams fall to 13-16 and continue their uninspiring start to the 1963 season.

Whisman contributed a big hit, a 2-run double, for Pittsburgh in the bottom of the third. With his team trailing 2-1, Whisman took a fastball from Chet Stansbury and stroked the double to left-center. His 6th double of the season allowed the Miners to leap in front, 3-2.

Whisman called the win "a collective effort."
