| Vulcans Take Tight Tilt, 1-0 | The Pittsburgh Vulcans got a brilliant performance from pitcher Stanley Lamb, who shut out the New York Barons, 1-0. In 9 innings, Lamb surrendered 2 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 0. He allowed no runs. Pittsburgh is now 56-56, while New York is 50-65.
The defining moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Pittsburgh. That's when Jasper Kent hit a run-scoring double off 20-year old left-handed pitcher Tom Samples to win the game. The home crowd went wild.
"He who laughs last laughs best," Kent said, postgame.
