Sheehan goes 3-for-4 as Millers Squeeze Past Los Angeles
Minneapolis beat Los Angeles at Wilshire Park, escaping with a 5-4 win. The win in large part was due to left fielder Dick Sheehan. He went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Bobby Crooks, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 10th save. Even with the win, the Millers have a dismal 37-97 record.

Clarence Jackson was 1 for 3 for Minneapolis. The 24-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Jim Foster. It was his 66th RBI of the season.

"We're in a little bit of a dry spell," said Los Angeles manager Bill Morrill.
