Pittsburgh Oilers (31-44) 0 1 0 1 1 3 0 0 0 6 11 0

Oilers Curb Athletics, 6-4
The Pittsburgh Oilers defeated the Cleveland Athletics, 6-4. Third Baseman Waldo Botterill deserved a large share of the credit. Botterill was 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk for the Oilers. The Oilers improved their record to 31-44 by beating Cleveland.

It could have been a different outcome for Pittsburgh, had it not been for Carl Mullinger, the 1908 Greenhorn Cup winner . Mullinger contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fifth inning to put Pittsburgh up, 3-2.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Mullinger.
