Los Angeles Defeated By Cuban Giants, 5-1
Jim Whitney pitched a gem to lead Miami to victory over the Los Angeles Angels, 5-1. In 6 innings, Whitney surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 10 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. The loss drops Los Angeles to 15-16.

Andy Pafko had a big solo home run for the Cuban Giants in the top of the third inning. With Miami leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he sized up a fastball from Vic Willis, who is tied for 9th in the AL in strikeouts with 45, and punished it. The result was his 7th home run of the season, which put the Cuban Giants on top, 2-0.

Pafko said his team "played with a purpose."
