Johnny Temple had 4 hits and 2 RBI at Crosley Field where the Cincinnati

Redlegs beat the New York Giants 7 to 5.

 

Cincinnati had 3 runs cross the plate in the 6th inning when they had 3 base

hits.  The critical plate appearance was by Ted Kluszewski who thrilled the

crowd when he doubled emptying the bases.  New York had a chance to come back

in the 9th but they came up short.  

 

Art Fowler(12-3) went 8 and 2/3 innings allowing 5 runs for the victory. Joe

Black gained credit for his 3rd save.  Ruben Gomez(5-7) took the loss.  He

was unable to control the Cincinnati offense and allowed 9 hits and 3 walks

in 5 and 2/3 innings.  

 

Cincinnati now has a record of 63-46.  With the loss, the New York ballclub's

record is 52-58.
