Rats Lose, 6-2, to Long Beach
The Long Beach White Sox picked up a win at Engel Stadium, knocking off the Chattanooga Rats, 6-2. Starting pitcher Bill Dinneen was an essential part of his team's success. Dinneen went 7.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 3, and struck out 8. His record improves to 4-4. The White Sox, now 22-26, know that wins in July count the same as wins in September.

Jose Valdivielso, the 25-year old shortstop , had a direct impact on the outcome. Valdivielso contributed a run-scoring hit-by-pitch in the top of the first inning to put Long Beach up, 3-0.

"I had pretty good command out there," said Dinneen.
