On-loan Blues striker Kieffer Moore netted his 10th goal of the season as Rotherham beat Scunthorpe 2-0 at the New York Stadium in League One.
Moore, who added the Millers' second in the 71st minute, is now the top scorer in the division on his own having pulled ahead of former Blues Brett Pitman, now with Portsmouth, and Jack Marriott, who joined Peterborough from Luton in the summer, who have nine.
The 25-year-old was subbed in injury time, while Town right-back Josh Emmanuel was an unused sub.
The duo are on loan with the South Yorkshiremen for the season but with the Blues able to cut their spells short in January.
Meanwhile, midfielder Adam McDonnell assisted Scott Rendell's 79th minute goal as Aldershot defeated Torquay United 1-0 in the fourth qualifying round of the FA Cup at the EEB Stadium.

McDonnell played the full 90 minutes, moving to left-back after fellow Blue George Fowler was substituted on 50.
Elsewhere, defender Chris Smith played the full 90 minutes for his loan club Chelmsford as they drew 0-0 with Bath City at Twerton Park, also in the FA Cup.
