George Gibson had 2 base hits and 3 RBI and Vic Willis completed the game without help from the bullpen as the blistering-hot Pittsburgh Pirates topped the New York Giants by a score of 9 to 4 at Forbes Field. In the 6th inning Pittsburgh scored 4 runs when they had 4 base hits. They would prove to be the difference in the contest. Pittsburgh totaled 14 hits on the afternoon. Willis(20-10), allowing 4 runs for the game, picked up the victory. Red Ames(11-14) was the loser. He got hit pretty hard, allowing 14 hits and 4 walks in 8 innings. Pittsburgh added another win to their now very impressive winning streak. John McGraw was very irritated after the contest. 'Just our luck to run into a team that's playing like a juggernaut right now. I have to congratulate Fred Clarke on his team's recent performance. A very impressive run.'
