Vulcans Win, 8-6
Garrison Common Grounds was the site for International Association action featuring the Toronto Provincials and Pittsburgh Vulcans.

The Pittsburgh Vulcans overcame a pretty good performance by Toronto right fielder Merritt Hunter, beating the Provincials, 8-6, at Garrison Common Grounds. Hunter went 4 for 5 with 4 singles and was hit by a pitch. The winning pitcher was John Babbitt. He's now 7-7. He went 9 innings, allowing 6 runs on 12 hits for the Vulcans.

Pittsburgh left fielder Louis Hedden contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the second. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 48th hit of the season and put the Vulcans ahead, 2-0.

"We got the victory," said Hedden. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."

Today's win puts Pittsburgh at 22-18, while Toronto falls to 17-23.
