Pittsburgh came up with the deciding runs in the 9th inning scoring 4 runners on 5 hits. The key at-bat was by Willie Jones who deflated the mood of the partisan fans when he doubled scoring two baserunners. Pittsburgh had 8 hits for the afternoon. Monk Dubiel(2-0) went 1 inning allowing 1 run for the victory. Ellis Kinder recorded the save, his 33rd. Luis Aloma(9-6) suffered the loss in relief. Jim Murphy was not very talkative after his team's tough loss. 'I'm not in the mood for questions, but I'm sure Andy Spector will be glad to talk about the game as long as you have questions to ask.'
