House of David Take Nail-Biter Over Black Barons
The Wandering House of David faced a tough opponent in Birmingham pitcher Alejandro Peña, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Wrigley Field by a final score of 8-7. Peña went 6 innings and allowed 1 run. By defeating Birmingham, the 4th-place House of David improved to 48-57.

The decisive blow was delivered by Mark McGwire in the bottom of the 13th when he hit a run-scoring double off 25-year old right-handed pitcher Bill Phyle to win the game for Wandering. The home crowd went nuts.

"Great to get the crowd on its feet," McGwire said.
