First baseman Ted Kluszewski launched 3 homeruns and had 5 RBI as the
Cincinnati Redlegs defeated the slumping Pittsburgh Pirates by a score of 9
to 4 at Crosley Field.
Kluszewski was in a groove all day. He lifted one out of the park for a two
run home run in the 1st inning, smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' in the 6th
inning and cleared the fences for a two-run home run (his 18th of the season)
in the 8th inning. Cincinnati had 19 hits for the afternoon while Pittsburgh
had 12.
Joe Nuxhall(7-4) was the winner allowing 4 runs in 8 innings. Ron Kline(2-9)
absorbed the loss. Cincinnati scored big getting 6 runs off him in 4 and 1/3
innings.
'They made a couple of mistakes and I took full advantage,' Kluszewski said
'next time I'm sure they'll pitch me tougher.'
Rudy Minarcin throws a 4 hitter as the Redlegs pound the Pirates 8-1.

Rudy Minarcin was able to finish what he started and was credited with a
complete game as the Cincinnati Redlegs defeated the ice-cold Pittsburgh
Pirates 8 to 1 at Crosley Field.
In the 4th inning Cincinnati went on top for good scoring 2 runs. After two
were out Wally Post opened up the rally as he drew a walk. Gus Bell was next
and he blasted a two-run home run (his 12th of the season). Cincinnati had a
total of 11 hits for the game.
Minarcin(3-3) picked up the complete game victory, allowing 1 run. Bob
Friend(2-5) ended up with the loss. He was knocked around pretty good,
giving up 6 runs in 4 and 1/3 innings.
Cincinnati now has a record of 30-27. Fred Haney was pretty down after the
loss. 'We've really been sputtering along lately, something like 1-9 in the
last week or two. That won't get it done.'
Thornton Kipper threw 2 2/3 innings scoreless relief as the Phillies edge the Cubs 7-6 and sweep the doubleheader.
