Vulcans Rally Late to Clip Cincinnati
The Pittsburgh Vulcans picked up a win at Queen City Grounds I, topping the Cincinnati Monarchs, 5-4. On the mound for Pittsburgh was right-hander John Babbitt. He played a principal role in the triumph. Today's win puts Pittsburgh at 54-37, while Cincinnati falls to 42-49.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Marty Wilson came to bat in the top of the eighth. Facing Cincinnati pitcher Joe Pappas, he hit a 1-1 slider for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Pittsburgh on top, 5-4.

"I like to keep things lively in the clubhouse," said Babbitt. "Believe me, it's much easier after a win."
