Millers Earn Win with Late Rally
The Minneapolis Millers did just enough to sneak past the Chicago Chiefs, 5-4, at Hennepin County Stadium. Minneapolis pitcher Hub Huffman, in particular, had a standout performance. Chicago falls to 17-14.

Monte Rollins was the walk-off hero for Minneapolis. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Millers pinch hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

In comments to the Minneapolis Citizen, Rollins insisted that he's not as disinterested as it often appears. "Haters will hate," he added.
