| Mechanics Pocket 3-2 Win Against Toronto | The Pittsburgh Mechanics took Toronto pitcher Stu Witt's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Cocker Park. The final score had Pittsburgh getting past the Beavers, 3-2. Witt went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs, striking out 4. The 4th-place Beavers have lost 4 consecutive games.
The game was at a stalemate until catcher Dave Raymond came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Toronto pitcher Jose Morales, he hit a 1-0 changeup for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Pittsburgh on top, 3-2.
"Tough loss," said Toronto manager Máximo Rios. "But that's how the cookie crumbles."
