WEB GEMS- Top 4th: Johnny Temple robbed Ernie Banks of a base hit.

 

Ted Kluszewski jacked one out of the ballyard and had 2 RBI as the Cincinnati

Redlegs won at Crosley Field in dramatic fashion over the Chicago Cubs, the

final score, 8 to 7.

 

Cincinnati won the game with a run in the bottom of the 9th inning.

Kluszewski drew a walk.  Wally Post came to the plate and doubled.  Gus Bell

then was walked intentionally to load the bases.  Stan Palys was up next and

he stroked a one-base hit resulting in an exciting win for Cincinnati and a

raucous post-game celebration by the home town fans.  The game was a wild

affair with the lead changing hands 5 times.  

 

Joe Nuxhall(15-10) was the winner allowing 1 run in 2 innings. Sam

Jones(12-12) suffered the loss in relief.  He allowed 1 run and 2 hits

without retiring a batter.
