Suns Pick Up 8-2 Win Against Minneapolis
Behind a solid performance from center fielder Larry Hurlbutt, the Los Angeles Suns defeated the Minneapolis Millers, 8-2. Hurlbutt was 2-4 with 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the Suns. Los Angeles, at 93-63, is 6 games up in the Federal Association West.

Hurlbutt had an important at-bat with runners on 1st and 2nd in the top of the seventh, when he hit a run-scoring single. The Suns went on to win.

"I thought we played a nice game," Hurlbutt told the Los Angeles Times. "Good pitching, timely hitting, it was all there."
