WEB GEMS- Bot 2nd: Walker Cooper blocked the plate, saving a run!

 

Paul Minner went the distance as the Chicago Cubs defeated the Cincinnati

Redlegs by the score of 3 to 2 at Crosley Field.

 

Chicago had 2 runs cross the plate in the 2nd inning when they had 3 base

hits.  They would be enough to earn the win.  Both teams ended up with 8 on

the afternoon.  

 

Minner(9-7) got the victory, allowing 2 runs for the game. Art Fowler(13-4)

was the losing pitcher.  The win by Chicago was very good news as they had

been 2-8 of late.  Now their seasonal record improves to 62-62.  With the

loss, Cincinnati has a record of 7-3 lately, 71-50 overall.
