Pittsburgh Defeated By Bluebirds, 7-4
The Brooklyn Bluebirds defeated the Pittsburgh Industrials, 7-4, at Allegheny Field. Brooklyn left fielder Ron Freeman had a superb performance. He was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Dick Conway got the win, improving to 3-1. He worked 7.1 innings, giving up 3 runs on 7 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 3. The loss drops Pittsburgh to 8-8.

Oscar Gonzalez had a big 2-run home run for the Bluebirds in the top of the third inning. With Brooklyn leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a changeup from John Fagan, the 18th overall pick in the 1965 draft, and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Bluebirds on top, 3-0.

"Nice win for us," said Gonzalez. "Now we'll go after the next one."
