Eagles Absorb 6-3 Home Loss
The Pittsburgh Industrials knocked off the Washington Eagles, 6-3, at Monument Field. Rob Isenbarger was a big reason Pittsburgh won. The second baseman was 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Dick Witt was the winner. He's now 1-1. The loser was 30-year old right-handed pitcher Tom McAteer. John Lonergan earned the save, his 1st, for the Industrials.

In the bottom of the seventh, Phil Soroka stood in the box, looking for a pitch to hammer. The Eagles were trailing 6-0, but had the bases loaded. That's when Dick Witt made a terrific pitch and Soroka grounded out. Gone was the dream of a Washington comeback.

The victory makes Pittsburgh 7-4, as the team seeks a return to the playoffs in 1972.
