The run-column was full of goose eggs at the end of nine full innings. Pittsburgh won it in the 10th inning. Bill Abstein tripled. Chief Wilson followed next and he lined a base-hit resulting in an exciting win for Pittsburgh and a wild post-game celebration by the home town fans. Despite losing, New York out-hit Pittsburgh 10 to 6. For Willis(21-10) it was his 4th shutout this year. Al Klawitter(1-1) was the loser. He pitched 9 innings and surrendered 6 hits and 3 walks.
