Black Barons Defeated by House of David, 3-2
Both teams had their chances, but the Wandering House of David eventually prevailed.

Wandering beat Birmingham on the strength of starting pitcher Jim Clinton's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 3-2. The winner was Clinton. He threw 6.0 innings of 3-hit ball. The loser was Lefty Gomez. Karl Spooner closed out the game, earning his 2nd save.

Wandering third baseman Ron Santo contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 19th hit of the season and put the House of David ahead, 3-0.

"If we keep winning the close games," Clinton said, "we'll be in good shape at the end."

The Black Barons are now 8-15.
