The performance of Gale Schmitt proved critical in helping Pittsburgh beat Chicago, 10-2.

He struck out 2 and walked 3 over 7.2 innings, while allowing 2 runs on 7 hits. The Miners now own a record of 20-21.

The Miners got a big hit from right fielder Chuck Draper. Facing Chicago pitcher Vern Osborne in the top of the sixth, Draper pounded a 3-run home run to right-center. His 3rd home run of the season put the Miners ahead, 9-1.

"We were firing on all cylinders," said Miners manager Harry Barrell.
