Pittsburgh Rallies for 5-3 Win
Pittsburgh starter Dennis Catchings pitched well against the Cincinnati Monarchs at Queen City Grounds I. The right-hander led his team to a win, 5-3. Catchings, who is tied for 3rd in the IA with a 2.21 ERA, went the distance for Pittsburgh. He gave up 3 runs on 10 hits. The win boosted Pittsburgh to 18-16.

Pittsburgh used the timely hitting of Steve Columbus to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Vulcans on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"That's a solid team effort right there," said Columbus. "Everyone's feeling positive after that win."
