First baseman Eddie Waitkus had 4 hits and 2 RBI and Robin Roberts completed

the game without help from the bullpen at Ebbets Field as the Philadelphia

Phillies beat the Brooklyn Dodgers by the count of 6 to 4.

 

Philadelphia came through with the game-winning runs in the top of the 8th

inning scoring 3 runs using 3 hits.  Willie Jones led off the inning for

Philadelphia when he reached on an error.  Granny Hamner was the next batter,

but he struck out.  Waitkus then delivered a one-base hit.  One out later,

Del Ennis came to the plate and stroked a single resulting in a run.  Ennis

took second on the throw.  Roberts stepped into the box and lashed a base-hit

which was good for two more runs.  Roberts took second on the throw.

Philadelphia finished with 12 hits in the victory.  

 

The victory was credited to Roberts(12-14) who went the distance, allowing 4

runs. The loss was charged to Don Newcombe(11-9).  Although losing the

contest, he whiffed 10 batters in 7 and 2/3 innings.  

 

With this win, Philadelphia has a 51-67 record.  They have been 5-5 lately.

With the loss, the Brooklyn ballclub's record is 69-44.
