Bobcats Win 6-5 Walk-Off
Cleveland first baseman Bill Harper was instrumental in helping the Bobcats triumph, 6-5, over the Pittsburgh Industrials. Harper was 3-4 with 3 singles and 2 walks. Reliever Frank Rudin picked up the win. His record improves to 4-3. Denny Grissinger took the loss. The setback makes Pittsburgh 60-40.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With one out, Harper hit a fastball from Denny Grissinger for a run-scoring single. The Bobcats, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"If you're not prepared, it's not pressure you feel, it's fear," mused Cleveland manager Daniel Mays.
