Dodgers Walk It Off for 15th Win of Season
The Brooklyn Dodgers faced a tough opponent in Pittsburgh pitcher Murry Dickson, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Ebbets Field by a final score of 5-4 in 10 innings. Dickson went 7.2 innings and allowed 3 runs. The win gives Brooklyn a record of 15-15.

The Dodgers got a clutch hit from center fielder Barney McCosky. In the bottom of the tenth, he hit a run-scoring single to center, to win the game for the Dodgers.

"Walking a team off at the end -- there's no greater feeling," said McCosky.
