Sheehan Helps Millers Win, 13-7, with Pair of Homers
Dick Sheehan led Minneapolis to a win over Los Angeles. The final score was 13-7. The left fielder had a huge performance. He whacked 3 extra-base hits, including 2 home runs and 1 double. Bill Smith, the winning pitcher, is now 4-6. He went 7 innings, allowing 5 runs on 5 hits, while fanning 5 and walking 4. The Millers improved their record to 22-36 by beating Los Angeles.

Minneapolis used the hitting of John Smith to pick up the win. The first baseman clubbed a grand slam home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Millers on top, 13-5. For the game, Smith had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Sheehan said.
