Industrials Bridle Traders, 4-3
The Pittsburgh Industrials picked up a win at Allegheny Field, dropping the Chicago Traders, 4-3. Frank Combs, who finished 2nd in the ABL in strikeouts with 201 in 1972, was the difference-maker. The winner was Combs. He threw 8.1 innings of 4-hit ball. The loser was Skip Crawford. Ray Williams converted his 24th save in 30 tries.

Pittsburgh right fielder Bob Boyle contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two down, he hit a cutter to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 78th hit of the season and put the Industrials ahead, 4-1.

"I like how we're playing right now," said Combs.

The first-place Industrials have won 6 straight.
