Big Day for Miller in 10-7 Pirates Win
The Pittsburgh Pirates handed the New York Giants a loss at Polo Grounds 1890-1910. The final score was 10-7. Doggie Miller made the highlight reel for Pittsburgh. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 3 runs and drove in 3. He also added 2 bases on balls. Jim Gardner got credit for the save for Pittsburgh. It was his 1st of the year. The Giants drop to 10-17.

Otto Schomberg, who led the NL in wins above replacement with 7.4 in 1887, aided the Pittsburgh cause with a run-scoring walk in the top of the sixth. For the game, the first baseman was 1-2 with 3 walks.

"I liked our effort," said Pirates manager Bill Leisz.
