Smoky Burgess hit a homerun and had 3 RBI as the Cincinnati Redlegs beat the

Pittsburgh Pirates in 13 innings by a score of 3 to 1.

 

The score was tied at 1 after nine.  Cincinnati won it in the 13th inning.

Joe Brovia started the inning off right when he singled.  Max Surkont then

let loose a wild pitch.  After an out was recorded, Burgess came to the plate

and smashed a two-run homer (his 16th of the season) making Cincinnati the

winners and sending the 24,587 fans home happy.  Pittsburgh was out-hit by

Cincinnati, 10 hits to 6.  

 

Rudy Minarcin(5-5) went 4 innings allowing no runs for the victory. The losing

pitcher was Surkont(4-10) in relief.  He pitched 3 and 1/3 innings giving up

4 hits and 1 walk.
