Harvey Kuenn had 3 base hits and 2 RBI as the Detroit Tigers topped the
Washington Nationals by a score of 7 to 4 at Griffith Stadium.
Detroit brought 3 runs across the plate in the top of the 2nd inning when they
had 3 base hits. The big moment was provided by Kuenn who deflated the mood
of the partisan fans when he doubled which was good for two runs. Detroit
managed 9 in their victory.
The winning pitcher was Ned Garver(12-6) who allowed 3 runs in 7 and 1/3
innings. The losing pitcher was Ted Abernathy(4-6). He pitched 5 and 1/3
innings giving up 6 hits and 4 walks.
