Pittsburgh Absorbs 6-3 Loss to New York
The 6-3 New York win over Pittsburgh was due largely to Steve Wright. The Knickerbockers second baseman went 2 for 4 with a home run, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Ollie Hundley notched his 3rd save in 5 chances. The Industrials, at 52-35, have lost 4 in a row.

Bob Marston contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With the bases loaded, he hit a 2-run single. His at-bat helped New York get the win.

"It's nice to deliver when your team's counting on you," said Wright.
