Boston right-hander Bob Black pitched his team to victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates at Exposition Park 1891-1908. The final score was 2-1. Black went 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 7 hits, walked 0, and struck out 2. His record improves to 30-15. The Beaneaters sit in second place in the National League with a record of 79-51.

The contest featured some late-game dramatics from Boston first baseman Dan McGann. In the top of the ninth inning, with one out and runners on 1st and 2nd, McGann hit a run-scoring double to help Boston seize the win.

Black told a Boston Daily reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
