St. Louis Sent Home with 8-4 Loss
Pittsburgh Vulcans starter Dennis Catchings found his groove in his team's 8-4 win over the St. Louis Pilots. Catchings, now 1-1, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 11 hits, while striking out 4, walking 1, and allowing 4 runs. St. Louis falls to 2-1.

The Vulcans benefited from a costly error in the top of the third. With John Babbitt at bat and Pittsburgh leading 1-0, the St. Louis miscue allowed Pittsburgh to plate 1 and take the lead, 2-0.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Catchings told the Pittsburgh Observer.
