Barons Dealt 4-2 Loss
Pittsburgh pitcher Andy Christenson had a large part in his team subduing the New York Barons, 4-2. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the right-hander. The Vulcans go to 45-54, putting them 4th in the Federal League.

With one out in the bottom of the first, Joe August put Pittsburgh in front, 2-0, with a 2-run single. The Vulcans went on to win the ballgame.

In postgame remarks, August hailed his team's "single-minded determination."
