| Redbirds Bump Off Whales, 5-3 | Fans who gathered at Rochester Stadium saw a good contest between the Rochester Redbirds and Chicago Whales.
The Rochester Redbirds topped the Chicago Whales by the score of 5-3, with the largest share of the credit going to catcher Rick Pierce. Pierce was 2-3 with a home run and was hit by a pitch for the Redbirds. Rochester reliever Eddie Kern picked up the win, bumping his record to 5-9. Denny Johnston was collared with the loss. Oscar Gimenez earned his 41st save in 51 chances.
The Redbirds got a big at-bat from pinch hitter Vaughn Dye. For the game, Dye was 1 for 1 with a double. He drove in 2 runs. In the bottom of the sixth, with runners on 1st and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 10th double of the season gave Rochester a 5-3 lead.
"Baseball is about momentum," said Pierce, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
Rochester is now 81-68, 2˝ games up in the Division 1.
