Suns Lose, 7-5, as Millers Rally
Joe Cahill was a major contributor to the 7-5 Minneapolis win over Los Angeles. The Millers pinch hitter was 1-1 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. The win was credited to 26-year old left-handed pitcher Dan Charlton in relief. His record improves to 3-6. Frank Carey took the loss. The Millers go to 31-54 with the win.

Bill Ingraham aided the Minneapolis cause with a run-scoring ground out in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the pinch hitter drove in one run.

Cahill told the Minneapolis Bulletin: "I don't know which I enjoy more -- being a ballplayer or the perks that come with being a ballplayer."
