McClellan Lifts Industrials to 9-8 Triumph
Terry McClellan added some punch to the Pittsburgh offense, helping them outmuscle the Los Angeles Blockbusters, 9-8. In the game, McClellan, who finished 5th in the ABL in batting average with .312 in 1969, went 2 for 4 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 2 and driving in 6. Jeff Munoz was the winner. Over 8.1 innings, he yielded 8 runs on 13 hits, with no walks and 4 strikeouts. Ray Williams got the save, his 22nd in 27 chances.

Pittsburgh grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when McClellan hit a grand slam home run off Ralph Weintraub. His 15th home run of the season put the Industrials out in front, 8-4.

"We take it day by day here," said McClellan, "and today was a good one for us."

The Industrials improved their record to 88-48 with the win over Los Angeles.
