Joe Kleman was a vital contributor to the 8-6 Boston victory over Pittsburgh. The Minutemen shortstop went 3-5 with a double and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. Chris Sargent claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 1 hit in 4 innings. His record stands at 1-1. Don Griffin closed it out for Boston, earning his 24th save.

With Boston trailing 1-0 in the top of the third, Kleman hit a 2-run single off Pittsburgh hurler Ed Power. It was the 139th hit of the season for Kleman and put his team ahead, 2-1.

"I like the vibe in the clubhouse after a win," said Kleman. "It sure beats the alternative."

The Minutemen, at 68-84, have now won 5 straight.
