Vulcans Score Late to Win, 11-8
The 11-8 Pittsburgh win over New York was due in large part to Jim Frank. The Vulcans catcher went 3-3 with 3 singles, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Stanley Lamb was the winner. Over 7 innings, he yielded 7 runs on 12 hits, with 2 walks and 2 strikeouts. The 4th-place Vulcans hiked their record to 57-63.

Pittsburgh used a timely hit from Jasper Kent to get the win. The right fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Vulcans ahead, 9-7. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Enjoyed this one," Frank told the Pittsburgh Bulletin. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
