Pittsburgh Nets 5-4 Win Versus Provincials
The Pittsburgh Vulcans picked up a win at Vulcan Grounds, knocking off the Toronto Provincials, 5-4. Starting pitcher Dennis Catchings was a big reason why. In 9 innings, Catchings surrendered 10 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 0. He allowed 4 runs. The win for the Vulcans raised their record to 49-34.

The game was at a stalemate until first baseman Luke Johnson came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Toronto pitcher Henry Clancy, he hit a 1-2 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Pittsburgh on top, 5-4.

Catchings attributed the win to "an all-around good team performance."
