Robinson Hits 2 home runs in Industrials Win
Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Pittsburgh Industrials and St. Louis Explorers.

Industrials first baseman Alex Robinson put his stamp on his team's 6-5 win over the St. Louis Explorers. Robinson went 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice for Pittsburgh in the contest. Picking up the win was Dennis Visco. He went 9 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits. The left--hander struck out 4 and walked 3.

The game was at a stalemate until third baseman Keith MacPherson came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing St. Louis pitcher Robbie Goolsby, he hit a 2-2 sinker for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Pittsburgh on top, 6-5.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Pittsburgh manager Vincent Wicker.

With their winning streak at 5, the Industrials have raced to a strong start this season.
