Field as the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Cleveland Indians 5 to
1.
Pittsburgh took the lead for keeps in the bottom of the 3rd inning when they
scored 2 runs on 3 hits. That early run support was enough for Friend(5-3)
and Pittsburgh. Both teams' bats went to sleep after the 4th inning with no
runs scored after that point.
Vinegar Bend Mizell(4-2) was the loser. He was knocked around, surrendering 5
runs in 4 innings. With this win, Pittsburgh has a 24-23 record. They have
