Kingfishers Rally For Late Win Over Mockingbirds
The Pittsburgh Kingfishers topped the Mississippi Mockingbirds, 1-0, in United States Premier League action at Magnolia Park. The game was highlighted by the performance of Pittsburgh pitcher Craig Culver. Culver, now 8-8, was the winner. In 7.1 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 5, walking 1, and allowing no runs. Cipriano Rosas notched his 18th save in 23 chances.

Pittsburgh used the clutch hitting of Brenton Hale to capture the win. The designated hitter drilled a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Kingfishers ahead, 1-0. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a big one.

Hale told a Pittsburgh Bulletin reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.

With the win, Pittsburgh raised its record to 52-51.
