Knickerbockers Suffer 9-1 Home Defeat
The Pittsburgh Industrials and starting pitcher Frank Combs stifled the New York offense en route to a comfortable 9-1 win at Knickerbocker Stadium. In 9 innings, Combs surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 1 and walking 3. He allowed 1 run. The National Baseball League Eastern Division-leading Industrials have a record of 67-38.

Tim Grange was 3-4 with 3 singles and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for Pittsburgh. The 35-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the fourth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a 2-run single off Dave Torre. It was his 40th hit of the season.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Grange said.
