Bannermen Earn 4-3 Road Win Over Pittsburgh
Both teams had their chances, but the Baltimore Bannermen eventually prevailed.

The Baltimore Bannermen knocked off the Pittsburgh Vulcans, 4-3, in International Association action at Vulcan Grounds. Baltimore pitcher and Dover, Delaware, native Harlan Beesley had an outstanding performance. Baltimore is now 36-26.

Baltimore took a 4-3 lead on Bill Michell's 8th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Michell hit in the top of the ninth, left Pittsburgh pitcher John Babbitt visibly frustrated.

"It was a solid team effort," Michell said. "That's usually what it takes to win."
