Industrials Win at Chicago, 7-3
The Pittsburgh Industrials picked up a win at Union Field, knocking off the Chicago Traders, 7-3. Starting pitcher Dennis Visco was a big reason why. Visco, who is tied for 2nd in the NBL with a 6.9 K/9 rate, went the distance for Pittsburgh. He gave up 3 runs on 10 hits. With the win, Pittsburgh pushed its record to 45-37.

Pittsburgh used a clutch at-bat from Keith MacPherson to capture the win. The third baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Industrials ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Our goal is to improve each and every day," MacPherson told the Pittsburgh Times.
