Industrials Score Late to Upend Bluebirds, 4-3
Pittsburgh Industrials starter Dennis Visco pitched a strong game against the Brooklyn Bluebirds at Flatbush Park, leading the Industrials to victory, 4-3. Pittsburgh is now 72-40, 13½ games up in the National Baseball League Eastern Division.

Pittsburgh used a clutch hit from Ray Baum to get the win. The pinch hitter drilled a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Industrials ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Visco.
